Maybe that gives me just enough information to be dangerous, but I have to say, I get the feeling that the people who are deeply immersed in digital transformation seem to be missing something hugely important: The digital part will be hard work, but it will be completely meaningless unless you do the culture change part.

The people at the top are nearly all Boomers and Xers, two generations that both grew up with the idea that knowledge is power and the basic expectation that only the people at the top have (or need) all the information. They are used to having all the information they could ever need, at their fingertips, all the time.

Information is controlled. This is that they experience the culture as more traditional than, basically, everybody else. So what is "more traditional?" Change is hard. Authenticity isn’t that important. Innovation is rare. Silos are necessary. Things like that.

Your culture is currently driving internal behavior around things like: how information gets shared, is it shared easily across organizational boundaries, do people trust each other and confront their conflict, and do you make sure that everyone understands your strategic priorities. That’s not a good/bad question—it’s how do you do it?

We don’t have enough time to share information with that other department. One was a large, global corporation, and the other was a small nonprofit, but they were both struggling with the same issue: not enough time. Everywhere I go, it’s the same thing: we don’t have enough time. We don’t have enough time to run experiments or do beta tests.

As early as the late 1920s, researchers started examining the human factors in production, discovering that social factors influenced performance much more than previously realized, and things like group norms and the “informal organization” also played an important part.

It’s not just that they’re feeding you inaccurate information (which they are), they are also making something that’s frighteningly complex sound like it’s simple, easy, and obvious, and that’s actually just as dangerous as the falsehoods, maybe even more so.
