How to change habits at an organisational — not just individual — level

Habits are like routine. Our brain often switches subconsciously to auto-pilot mode. This 'habit loop', well detailed by behavioural neuroscientists, is also now better understood , allowing us to identify three principles which drive our minds and behaviours: social incentives (we care about how people see us), the immediate reward (we prefer a recognition now, rather than a theoretical one in the future)  and control monitoring (recording progress help us to adjust for the better), writes Mathilde Guillou, Pedagogic Director of HEC Global Organizations Executive Coaching program.
