Strategic culture development begins with a baseline

With baseline mapping, the values of a team are identified and presented on a culture map. This map consists of specifics about:

  • Prioritised values
  • Preferred mindset
  • Fitness to strategic culture codes

The «best fit culture» for any business is the one that is most aligned with the business strategy. The «best fit culture» also builds on a sufficient level of alignment to existing values, hereby mobilising the organisation’s actual priorities.

We ensure personal engagement for everyone involved through individual reports with insights into their own culture footprint.

Balancing business culture and strategy

Insight into values and culture provide a unique understanding for the existing business performance and help identify opportunities for growth.

Our cultural assessments give management a precise understanding of the mindset of a team as a whole, identifying key drivers for motivation and action.

The degree of alignment of culture, strategy and market position is the major factor in determining the organisational long term performance and success (Heskett, J., The Culture Cycle, 2011).

Data-driven culture development

Culture drives how people collaborate, how they take risk, how they feel valued and how they innovate. It is the systematic understanding of what people find important to put into action.

Although businesses recognise that culture is important, there seems to be a missing link between this understanding and the access to a language, dataset and framework needed to manage and develop cultures. Without data and a framework, it is hard to structure and develop ways for improvement and measurement of achievements.

A research-based approach to culture

We lean on research founded in the 1970s when science and psychology collided. The key questions asked were how people-oriented sciences could be more measurable, more quantified, and more useful for business.

Since 1999, we have explored and documented the effect of working with values and culture. The database for Culture Intelligence incorporates business experience and development projects from a period of 15 years, including projects in Scandinavia, US and UK.

Culture impacts performance. Company with engaged culture has 30% greater satisfaction, 65% greater share-price increase, and 26% less employee turnover. Queen’s University Centre for Business Venturing
