Character and Culture of an organization

Dharma is that which helps in holding the

system together.

VMVs are the attributes of Dharma of an organization.

30 October 2009 11
VMVs

•Vision is ‘what we want to be’.

•Mission explains ‘ why do we exist ’.
•Values articulates ‘how we intend to live as
we pursue our mission’.

Organization Character => Values translated into action!

30 October 2009 12
Why mission programs fail?

•Lack of definition in the vision.

•Lack of management commitment.
•Lack of stakeholders enrollment.
•Lack of planning and focused
implementation.
•Inability to deal effectively with breakdowns
as they occur.
•etc.,
Every improvement opportunity should be used to reinforce
the organization culture , adhering to VMVs.
