Cultural Energy

Change fails when people are not behind it. It could be a lack of clarity, a lack of motivation, a mismatch of expectations, no shared way of working. But mostly, it’s all of the above. We get to the heart of what makes your people tick, what’s getting in the way and how to boost your cultural energy.

When organisational energy levels are high, the day-to-day hums with positivity, focus and progress. Everyone knows what they need to get on with, and they get on with it. Motivated and working towards the same goal. You can feel it. 

When energy levels are low, organisations are reduced to just about good-enough efficiency machines, feeble innovation and lacklustre performance. It feels like everything is brought into question. And everything is a problem. Your teams are fighting fires instead of hitting targets.  You can feel it.

We help leaders who want greater momentum by boosting their organisation’s cultural energy. We do this by helping people intuitively understand, buy into, be motivated by and know how they contribute to the greater goal. 

You want to see results sooner rather than later. We know how to move fast, not boil the ocean and set you and your team up for success in a time-bound intervention.

Assumptions need to move from implicit to explicit, get things written down for shared understanding and mutual trust. Together we will develop clear behavioural principles and powerful interventions that turn behaviours into habits.

Change needs company. We take your people on the journey, for greater buy in, understanding and responsibility, for a culture change that sticks

Agree the metrics as a management tool for evaluating your cultural energy, diagnosing where to focus efforts, tracking momentum and adapting the programme over time.

Set up a functioning, engaged and intersectional team of internal Supernodes, with frontline insight, influence and agency, keeping a finger on the pulse and charging up energy levels across the workforce. 

Codify ambition and behaviours
into powerful and memorable language that captures the practical ways of working as a reciprocal agreement for all in the organisation.

Identify the rituals, lore and artefacts that will have a disproportionate impact on the culture needed for growth. Roadmap and kick start a few focused initiatives in a dramatic way.

Session design and training for leaders and the Supernodes to take the cultural framework into the heart of the organisation, working through what it means for individuals and teams.

We've teamed up with leading culture measurement platform, Culture15 to offer our clients a management tool that helps leaders keep a finger on their cultural pulse.

More than an engagement metric, Culture15 can measure the gap between your existing culture and your target culture across key behaviours, in specific teams, and at regular intervals. 

Newly launched AI features that turn qualitative content into quantitative dashboards make for a more practical tool. Unlike other engagement platforms, Culture15 allows us to track practical behaviours in your organisation, rather than fleeting emotional states. This helps us test and learn from the initiatives for embedding and boosting your cultural energy.
