Peter Drucker, a management guru who has written extensively on knowledge work, is quoted for saying “Culture eats strategy for breakfast”. He wants to emphasize the importance of culture over strategy. If you focus on strategy, but not on your culture, it’s the culture that wins. Drucker says we need more focus on culture.
And it’s true. Culture definitely trumps strategy. Yet even culture is subordinate to the system.

An interesting point but the truth is that the "system" is often defined by the culture -- so "culture still eats strategy for breakfast, lunch, and dinner."
