Chapter 13
Organizational Culture in Action
Organizational Culture in Action
The Eagle Group’s Sources of Success Leading Principles
The Eagle Group’s Sources of Success Why do some groups produce extraordinary
results while others produce little or nothing? Play, spirit and culture are at the core of peak
performance
Sources of cultural success I
How someone becomes a group member is important
Diversity provides a team’s competitive advantage
Examples, not command, holds a team together
A specialized language fosters cohesion and commitment
Sources of cultural success (II)
Stories carry history and values and reinforce group identity
Humor and play reduce tension and encourage creativity
Ritual and ceremony lift spirits and reinforce values
Sources of cultural success (III)
Informal cultural players make contributions disproportionate to their formal roles
Soul is the secret of success
Conclusion
Symbolic perspectives questions traditional views on team building Right structure and people are important, but
not sufficient The essence of high performance is spirit Banishing play, ceremony and myth would
destroy teamwork, not create it Team building at its heart is a spiritual
undertaking: peak performance emerges as a team discovers its soul
