cultural transformation
Society-wide paradigm shift
Cultural transformation is a fundamental shift in the shared beliefs, values, and practices of a society or organization.
Unlike gradual change, it suggests a deliberate or dramatic remaking: The company underwent a cultural transformation after new leadership arrived.
The term appears frequently in business contexts, where it often means changing how employees think and work, and in discussions of social movements that reshape public attitudes.
