CultureShift through memeology

Shifting the culture of an organisation is the holy grail of most business leaders.

Few agree on how. Organisational psychotherapy is a new, emerging field, drawing on more than a century of science, research and practice in the established field of individual psychotherapy.

Memeology is a self-help approach to leveraging the power of Organisational Psychotherapy.

The approach presented in this talk – an approach I call "Memeology" – is predicated on providing a list of the typical memes constituting the organisational memeplex, and facilitating the self-directed surfacing of and reflection on the prevailing assumptions and beliefs of the organisation in terms of these memes.
