Cultural Reading

I asked a question on twitter. I committed to making a list.

DavidBuck on Twitter: “This week I’m going to be doing some reading on culture. Particularly culture in/of organisations and groups/teams. I have some thoughts but welcome all and any suggestions.”

I read this Stop Trying to Create Organizational Culture by Evan Wildstein and from there, via @CreativeMornings I came to a video with Megan Rhiannon and another book.

I dug around Cultural Inheritance for a bit. I like this UNESCO | Living heritage and nature and this Dive into intangible cultural heritage! — intangible heritage — Culture Sector — UNESCO from which it’s derived.

I’m not keen on the machine vibes but as thing to develop more questions from it felt helpful 28-components-to-constructing-effective-corporate-culture
