Chicken eggs are also estimated to account for 93% of the world’s 86 million tonnes of poultry eggs. The UN FAO estimates that the world produced more than 121 million tonnes of chicken meat in 2021, making it the world’s most harvested meat.
We dive into each category of livestock below. Though there is definite correlation, especially when it comes to natural obstacles for both humans and livestock like deserts, forests, and mountain ranges, the concentration of livestock spreads far further than the densest human cities. Chicken, Beef, and Pork Livestock DensityĪs a starting point, it’s worth noting that the above map of all livestock might seem reminiscent to a human population density map. These maps from Adam Symington help to answer these questions, using the Gridded Livestock of the World database from the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), which models livestock densities from 2010 around the world.
So where are the various types of livestock concentrated in the world? And how do national consumption habits influence animal husbandry? Mapped: Global Livestock Distribution and DensityĬombined together, meat, dairy, and eggs make up nearly 18% of the average person’s diet.īut in order for these meat and animal products to reach consumers, a vast global livestock industry-one supporting the livelihoods of 1.3 billion people globally-operates in fields and farms largely unseen from major cities. The amount of companies that are successful in these endeavors is far fewer than the amount that have tried – and this iceberg of organizational culture change has sunk many ships over time. The following infographic from ZeroCater offers six ways to help get you started in building a strong culture.Īs you embark on your voyage to build a stronger company culture, remember that organizational change is more complex and ingrained than it initially seems. To effectively shape the bottom of the iceberg – those deeply-ingrained beliefs held throughout the organization – change must happen over a longer period of time where leading is done by example, and employees have the support they need to grow.
CULTURAL ICEBERG EXAMPLES HOW TO
How to Build a Strong Company CultureĬultural change cannot happen in one week of meetings, or through a few memos sent from higher ups. Unfortunately, transforming these underlying perceptions, traditions, and shared assumptions is the real hard part of the exercise, and it can take many months or even years to see the results of such initiatives. In other words, for managers to positively affect cultural change, they not only need to address the top of the iceberg (vision, mission, values, etc.) but they must also make inroads on the bottom of the iceberg, which makes up more like 90% of a company’s actual culture. At the top of the mass, there are visible indicators of a culture – but underneath is a bigger, invisible mass that holds all the ingrained cultural assumptions that are extremely difficult to affect.Īs Torben Rick puts it, the iceberg represents “the way we say we get things done” in contrast to the deeply-ingrained “way that things actually get done” within an organization.
Today’s infographic comes from executive consultant Torben Rick, and it uses an iceberg analogy to show why organizational culture change sinks so many ships. As a result, decision makers often underestimate how challenging cultural change can be. The problem is that company culture, just like the culture that permeates through society, is based on hidden sets of assumptions, social norms, traditions, and unwritten rules that represent the way things actually get done in a company. The benefits of a strong company culture are many – and it’s no surprise to see companies all over the world aspiring to build world-class cultures within their organizations at almost any cost.
