Our Culture Change Services...
Culture is a
crucial ingredient of all organisations. It affects strategy,
performance, behaviour and change-responsiveness, all of them key
determining factors in organisation survival and success. Most leaders are
acutely aware how constructive cultures help people perform, and equally
aware of how dislocated ones breed bad behaviour, toxic climates and
under-performance. Culture has
a profound effect on every facet of
your organisation: you, your people and how you operate.
We assume
renovating or revitalising culture is high on your strategic agenda too or
soon will be – otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this. We design
down-to-earth programs and processes people can easily understand and
engage with that assist you in creating constructive work cultures
– whether it’s a single team or a whole organisation. Here’s a few of the
main ways we can help with your next culture change effort...
|
Leading Culture
Change: Often the first thing you need to do is raise
awareness amongst your leadership of how crucial culture change is to
strategy, performance and productivity – then give them some tools to
help them handle it better. That’s what our
Leading Culture Change clinic
does. |
|
Scanning your
Culture. Another place to start is to work out what your
current culture’s like. We conduct Culture Scans in-house as well as
structured dialogues and facilitated culture-probe groups using our
6 CLEVER Dimensions
of Culture. ‘Culture scan’ is a broad term we use for
any imprint you take of your current culture. It doesn’t have to be a
big, formal survey. A scan can be as simple as running a series of
sessions with groups of people to collect their impressions of
features and patterns in the culture.

Planning a
Culture Change Strategy. We help senior leaders
and other key culture agents in your organisation identify the kind of
culture you want and work out what needs to change in the current
culture to help get you there.
|
|
Culture-Building
Clinics. We also run a set of culture-building clinics
under the banner of
Working Better Together.
These clinics come into play usefully when it comes time in your
culture change plan to start trying to change thinking and behaviour
by giving people new skills, tools and ideas. There’s
10 different
clinics to choose from and we customise content to
cover much-needed culture change arenas such as:
|
Conversations: having more open,
constructive team-talk |
|
Relationships: enhancing respect,
trust and collaboration |
|
Climate: creating positive, safe,
supportive work climates |
|
Dealing with dysfunctions: tacking
old team norms and habits that have become obstacles
|
|
|
Culture Change Consulting: We can also work
with you on a consulting basis to support culture change. Typical
activities we often assist with include:
|
Plan and design culture change
processes: Whether it’s with executive teams, projects groups,
change teams or intact work units, we can help you scope your culture
change, develop specifications, design processes and jointly plan
strategies and learning programs to support it. |
|
Facilitate a range of strategic change,
vision-setting and action-planning workshops to help you
systematically think through all the steps in your culture change
process. |
