“Culture” is the “miasma“ of management theories.
Ie the "culture eats strategy" type delusion is a two-step conflation. 1. Step 1: confusing a set of behaviors that seem to work with the ONLY set of behaviors that COULD work 2. Step 2: confusing that set with the preferred abstractions you use to understand it

Like, I often use the OODA/Blitzkrieg model as the basis for consulting. Depending on how you look at it, the "pieces" of that theory could be interpreted in a "culture" way or not, depending on the personal preferred style of the executive.

We agree that the "culture eats strategy" thing isn't right, but strategy must have a sufficient culture to be able to work. However, having culture fit with strategy != good execution, the right team, etc., but it almost always drives those things.

You very much can still have good culture-strategy fit, but still fuck up the execution. Though it gets recursive as the "right strategy" should be taking into account all starting conditions of the org, including its culture, team, capabilities, etc.
