Focus and Attention

Reaction to Crises

Leaders communicate priorities and beliefs to organization.

Leader¶s focus and consistency in paying attention determines if the rest of the

organization receives clear signals or is left to decipher the leader¶s inconsistent

views

Jeffery Skilling paid attention to profits at all costs and so rest of the

organization could do anything as long as results are shown

During a crisis ± Emotions are heightened; Learning is intense.

oM& A: Willingness to change, Transparency and Communication.oEconomic downturn: Laying off and right-sizing.

Employees pay careful attention to this as they perceive it to be company¶s true

colors.

Managers resorted to anonymous whistle blowing, blame shifting and

finger pointing just before declaring bankruptcy.

Change the behavior of employees in the organization.

Managers must ensure that the change in behavior results in buying a

new set of values of the organization.

Cultural communication is essential to deliver the values of theorganization to its sub-ordinates.

Organization can revise its selection strategies to suit its current culture.

Organization can reshape its work force by hiring members who fit in the

culture and remove people who reject it.

The process of cultural change happens gradually over a long period of 

time.

Contd.

Evaluation of Cultural change:

Cultural change can be successful only if the behavior is intrinsically

motivated.

Example AT&T slow and painful change
