CULTURE

Culture is the set of rules, expectations and forces which shape individual behaviour in your organisation. Culture is very hard to see/observe from the inside, because you're surrounded by the signs and practices every day. However, there is no bigger force in an organisation than its culture.

​

Culture is also subject to scale - teams will have a culture created by the individuals in it, a section or department will have a culture, and an organisation can, overall, be seen as having a culture. As such, culture is created by groups of people, but is also shaped by the systems which surround them.

​

Anyone who thinks that culture change is simple and linear is dangerously over-simplifying. The process requires consultation, honesty, goodwill, a willingness to accept hard truths, and the ability to challenge and change behaviours, both individually and in teams.

​

To do culture work successfully, you need 'people' people. That's us. We bring organisational experience, psychology, communications, and a genuine like for people and the great things that they can do together. We also bring the analytical capacity to tell if initiatives are working - data science, outcomes measurement and statistics.
