Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets.
-Paul Batalden
There are many systems inside of organizations- mechanical and human. The behavior of any human system is determined by a critical mass of its members behaving similarly. Such behavior is typically termed “group norms” or “culture.” That culture can be positive or negative.
The function of human systems are positive or negative depending on a few things, including:
- The quality of alignment of its members with the goals of the system
- The level of trust among the members of the system
- The degree of collaboration and support among the members of the system
