I forgot to say why it mattered

On the subject of why to do a cultural/sewing audit. The point of doing this exercise is to see if the artifacts, values and assumptions all line up - if they don't nothing is going to work out the way it should.

For example an organization that has the value "Our people are our greatest asset" but doesn't have family friendly policies or operates under the assumption that personal and work lives should be separate to the point that you have to call in to say you are sick when it really is your child, might lose its best assets in its people.

Make sense?

Try this on your sewing life.
