If you were in charge of an organization change initiatives, should your behaviors or values matter first, according to Burke? Why? How would you proceed changing the organization, starting with the new culture and proceeding to changing managers’ behaviors?

What will be an ideal response?


Tackle behaviors first because they are easier to change than values. Begin by determining what the new culture should be. Then identify the behaviors that are required to realize the new culture. Train managers in these behaviors. Include the new behaviors in the managers’ performance appraisals and incorporate pay for performance to ensure managers use the behaviors.
