Why is the Process Culture in an Organization so very Important?

What is an organization?

In a very simplistic sense, an organization can be defined as a group of people working on projects to develop and sell solutions, products and services to the identified set of target customers.

So an organization is a set of people and projects serving certain customers.

But people join and leave. Projects start and end. And customers come and go.

So what is an organization?

It is not people. It not projects. And it is not even customers.

The fabric tying the above three pieces together is what converts a group of people, projects and customers into an organization.

What is this fabric thing?

This fabric is like a glue that binds things together.

This fabric is nothing but the systems and processes that drive the business operations of the organization.

Since this fabric is so important, it thus makes process culture in an organization so very important.
