Practice Makes Culture: How Welcoming Elephants, Creating Ownership, and Facilitating Daily Practice Transform Organizations

Transform your organization when most change efforts fail.

After decades of organizational transformation efforts, the failure rate remains stubbornly high: over 70%. What’s missing? The human element.

In Practice Makes Culture, you'll discover why most transformations still fail and how to ensure yours succeeds by addressing what other approaches miss: the emotional dynamics, hidden narratives, and everyday behaviors that truly shape your organization.

This practical guide introduces a powerful framework centered on three critical focus areas:

- Elephants: Address the emotional aspects of change, recognize diverse perspectives, and tackle difficult conversations that most leaders avoid.
- Ownership: Create transformation that people actually want by ensuring those affected by change are the ones steering it.
- Practice: Transform meetings into powerful practice fields for cultural change through consistent, daily reinforcement of desired behaviors.

Whether you're helping your humans grapple with GenAI (everywhere), helping turn around a business or department, or building a learning organization, you'll learn how to create lasting change that delivers both better business results and happier humans. Filled with practical templates, facilitator guides, and real-world case studies, this book translates cutting-edge research into actionable practices you can implement immediately.

Don't settle for another failed transformation. Create a culture where continuous improvement and positive change become organizational habits—where your teams deliver with confidence, quality, and joy
