The consequences of a toxic organizational culture include:

  • High Turnover Of Customers: Customer satisfaction and customer loyalty will decline fast resulting in financial problems in the current business model.
  • High Turnover Of Employees: Employees will leave the organization if they have the chance to do so due to dissatisfaction and stress.
  • Low morale: A negative and demoralizing toxic work environment leads to low morale and demotivation of everybody working inside the organization and with the organization in the business ecosystem.
  • Decreased productivity: A toxic organizational culture hinders productivity, creativity and every type of innovation.
  • Legal issues: Toxic organizational cultures create a hostile, unhealthy and toxic work environment, leading to legal problems.
  • Damage to reputation: A toxic organizational culture damages the personal reputation and personal brand of people and of the organization’s reputation and brand as a whole.

It is important to recognize the signs of a toxic organizational culture and take the necessary steps to remove this internal organizational obstacle with just-in-time integrated organizational change. This includes performing an external and internal root-cause analysis and choosing the right organizational change approach to turn the toxic organizational culture into a healthy organizational culture.

Or if you work in an organization with such an organizational culture, my personal advice is: leave asap as I did in 2011…..before its too late.
