Is Your Organization's DNA
Killing Your Bottom Line?
Did you know that a company has DNA just as other living organisms do? It's true! Your company's DNA is comprised of seven vital genes that determine if it's healthy or not. The acronym CHANGES will help you remember the seven vital genes:
Community - Creating an environment of inclusion
Humanity - Having open, candid, and caring conversations
Aspirations - Striving for the future and setting the bar high
Navigation - Fostering collaboration to achieve goals
Generativity - Allowing the status quo to be challenged
Expression - Empowering others to speak in their own voice
Spirit - Celebrating success and recognizing achievements
We have found that healthier organizations are WE-centric, which means that individuals are valued and respected and invited to participate in designing successful outcomes at every level of the organization.
With our DNA Assessment, it's easy to see if your organization is healthy or not. In the illustrations below, healthy genes are green, at risk genes are yellow, and unhealthy genes are red.
