FOCUS ON CONTINUOUS LEARNING

DELIBERATE DEVELOPMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS

The working environment focuses on cultivating learning through inquiry, curiosity and transparency, instead of an environment characterized by judgment, certainty and self-protection. TIME-LIMITED AND MANAGEABLE EXPERIENCES WITH NEW BEHAVIORS Such new behaviors can test individuals' unconscious assumptions that changing the status quo is dangerous and likely to have negative consequences.

Digitally mature organizations intentionally focus on culture.

In our experience, there are a number of steps which need to be taken in order to promote this specific focus:

CREATION OF AN ENVIRONMENT WHICH FEELS SAFE

This environment is sustained by top leaders who are willing to role model vulnerability and take personal respon- sibility for their imperfections and missteps.

CONTINUOUS FEEDBACK

This kind of feedback flows — up, down and across the organization – which is grounded in a shared commitment to help each other grow and progress. Ultimately, organizations need to learn how to learn together.
