Culture, strategy and growth: a model of people towards business acceleration

Authors

Abstract

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated

the presence in the future and made all technological

and strategic changes visible which further complicates

the competitive situation of companies in Ecuador.

Methodology: Through the documentary review

of the main concepts referring to organizational

culture, strategy and value creation; in addition,

to a deep investigation carried out in Ecuador,

elements and elections that influence the low

competitiveness of the country are identified

and thus establish a model for growth for

these companies. Results: Only 42.4% of the

organizations investigated have a deep belief in

sustainability; 42.4% a value proposition focused

on efficiency and productivity; and, 62.3% do

not have a methodology for the development of

innovation projects. Discussion: The strategic

model used by these companies lacks clarity in

design and is focused on efficiency, operational

plans and the short term. Conclusions: The

design of a culture -strategy- growth model allows

incorporating fundamental elements to improve

the growth and competitiveness of organizations

in Ecuador.
