Most people seem to agree that culture and strategy are important. But to have a meaningful discussion of how to harness them, you need to remember why that is. The problem is that the common definitions of culture and strategy tend to be vague, and hide how they’re related. So I want to discuss two relatively simple definitions that highlight the relationship and can help you think about what they should look like. They also help explain the well-known Peter Drucker quote “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.”
