This paper is a generalized discussion related to the nature
and implications time, story and organizational culture play in corporate
decision-making, CEO selection; treatment of long-term employees; the change
process and the language used to present and promote the corporation. The paper
provides a beginning point for revisiting how unrecognized (societal and
individual) assumptions affect choice and decision-making. Practically, the
paper also provides a starting point for organizations to self assess their
external and internal approaches and whether they align superficially or
whether the mission and vision are lived in the mundane daily activities. The
paper is based on qualitative, experiential and anecdotal evidence gathered by
the author.
