Culture is Strategy: The way high-performing businesses will be managed in the future.
People are seeking more meaning in their work. The trend is unmistakable.
Culture Design® creates a dynamic environment that sets a system of beliefs and norms, one that drives inspired engagement toward the business’s most urgent priorities.
Culture Design® is a robust system for designing and executing culture. It looks at employees like customers and analyzes their relationship to four essential areas of work. Culture Science® enables the design of a deep and immersive connection to the vision, the purpose, and the ‘how’ of why work needs to be done.
What makes it unique and effective is that it combines social, behavioral, and management sciences, wrapped up in strategic communication, to make change irresistible. The process delivers a real, human, and emotional connection to work.
Assessments Powered by Culture Science®
The standard ways of collecting employee sentiment are unreliable. The key to understanding the mindset and employee experience is found in the stories people are telling about their work. This is the soul of the organization. We developed a method of collecting narrative data for your entire organization.
Our Culture Science Assessment™ allows you to uncover the experiences and stories that your employees are sharing about their work. This is at scale and with the richness of qualitative data and the structure of quantitative data to understand and inform a relevant, motivating, and unifying Culture Science® strategy.
The outcomes are clear insights and viable actions to solve problems and design the culture you want.
