Q: How can I drive cultural change when I'm not in a senior leadership position?
As a leader, regardless of your position's seniority, you play a crucial role in shaping your team's culture.
You can cultivate a team environment characterized by mutual understanding, psychological safety, and a shared pro-social purpose. Such a culture not only enhances team performance but also sets a standard for what a high-performing team should look like.
In the long term, as you create a 'pocket of excellence' within your team, your success won't go unnoticed by the senior leadership. Although direct influence might seem futile at first, the results produced by your team can open doors to influencing the broader organizational culture. When leaders see the tangible benefits of a positive culture reflected in your team's performance, they are more likely to seek your insight and potentially scale your approach across the organization.
This method might not bring immediate change, but it’s a powerful strategy for long-term cultural transformation, even when you're not in a senior leadership position.
