Many
factors affect the core business practices
of a company. One of the most important
factors is the example set by leadership.
For
example, if the leadership of a company
is seen by employees as performing its
day-to-day activities with a high level
of integrity, employees are more likely
to do the same.
Another
important factor is the culture of the
organization. A culture that takes pride
in quality work product is more likely
to have core business practices that
encourage such behavior.
Core
business practices can be leveraged
to create core competencies. Core competencies
are things a business does well that
are essential to its overall business
strategy.
Changing
core business practices can be tricky.
Core
business practices are often are driven
by personal ego's and so ingrained into
the overall psyche of a company's culture
that both management and employees are
barely aware that they even exist. They
just consider these practices the ordinary
course of conducting business.
Thus
effecting a change in core business
practices requires strong, visible support
from ownership and senior leadership
and often needs a realigning of incentives
to promote the new practices.
