Design Structural Reinforcements for the Target Culture
Culture does not sustain itself through speeches and posters. It needs structures that make the desired behavior the path of least resistance: incentives, rituals, hiring criteria, onboarding, decision processes, and recognition systems. A CEO who builds these reinforcements into the operating system creates culture that persists even when leadership attention moves elsewhere.
