Culture Development & Integration
“No company, small or large, can win over the long run without energized employees who believe in the mission and understand how to achieve it.” - Jack Welch
An organization has its own unique cultural DNA or culture. It determines what employees value, how they behave, their priorities and what they do when no one is watching. Since as many as 50% of people leave a job in the first two years, cultural fit is important.
Cultures are shaped “One Leader at a Time.” To understand a culture, we look at an organization’s leadership, values and structure.
Leaders are “culture shapers” who:
- Keep the vision, values and purpose top of mind
- Serve as role models and storytellers for what is expected
- Influence day-to-day employee actions and behaviors
We help executives and their teams:
- Look at their cultures from a fresh point of view
- Envision the culture they want to create and engage employees in the process
- Design a roadmap to shape and align cultures to the business strategy
- Facilitate the learning, feedback and reinforcement necessary for lasting change

Having a diverse workforce is only half of […]
How to Make Sure Others Use Their Voices to Get Heard
Strong voices for change are needed within organizations. A recent study suggests that only 29% of employees think that management listens to concerns about discrimination (race, sex/gender, age, etc.) without blame or defensiveness (Leadership IQ Survey). The question remains, what actions are these same organizations taking internally to ensure minority representation, equal hiring and promotion opportunities? As […]
