The Temenos Iceberg Model for Culture Change

by Siraj Sirajuddin, Susan Gibson

Ever wonder what cultural change looks like within an enterprise? Well, it looks like an iceberg! Some parts of the culture are visible, some parts are partially visible, and some parts are completely hidden from view. As an enterprise change agent, it’s important to understand this to be effective, whether you’re internal to the enterprise (iCAT), external to the enterprise (eCAT), or an executive change agent (xCAT). In this webinar, we presented the Temenos Iceberg Model, and you’ll gain valuable insight into how you can navigate the tricky waters of cultural change.
