I certainly agree that changing business and corporate culture is like the old string analogy… you can’t push a piece of string, you need to pull it. Or, as the well known business engineer Michael Hammer put it, “the soft stuff is the hard stuff”.

Right now I am helping to roll out my company’s education and audit work program on GRC convergence and oversight. What a similar challenge to migrating a company’s culture towards integrating risk management into the everyday business model!

Luckily, we have done our homework on human change management and have devoted a good portion of the content to making sure that participant’s understand the challenge that is before us in dealing with the “soft stuff” (human change).
