Horses, Trojan horses and organisational culture

Animal metaphors are common in business circles. The other day Karina and I were discussing the type of work we do around organisational culture. We spend an increasingly large amount of time talking about tigers, elephants, Trojan horses and the impact these ‘Trojan horse’ projects really have on organisational culture. In the midst of a long conversation about other things Karina said, “some projects are just horses”.

Our musings into this cul-de-sac of horses, Trojan horses and organisational culture felt worth capturing and sharing…so I wrote an article that you can find over at Medium – https://medium.com/@iain_21420/horses-trojan-horses-and-organisational-culture-47b9f4d582a3
