Culture.
Culture workshops that turn your values into how your team behaves.
.webp)
Culture is the operating system underneath everything else. It's the patterns that hold whether anyone is watching, the behaviours that get rewarded and tolerated, the unwritten rules people learn in their first month. Easy to describe, hard to change.
Helping your culture live in the everyday.
I offer a range of services, from defining the values your team genuinely owns, keeping behaviours deliberate across the year, and seeing where the culture you state and the one people experience pull apart.
Define Your Values
A practical, self-facilitated toolkit to define and embed a set of company values with your team. Guides, frameworks, real examples and an editable slide deck walk you through running the workshop yourself, so the values are written down and owned by the people who live them. Yours to keep, across the organisation. I can also help you run this process end to end.
Quarterly Offsites
A quarterly two-day offsite that keeps culture deliberate. Alongside strategy, the team works on the behaviours it rewards and tolerates and the operating practices that carry them, so the values stay lived in the everyday. This is my flagship offer for leadership teams.
Leader & Team 360
360-degree feedback that surfaces lived culture: how a leader's and a team's behaviours actually land, and where they drift from the values on the wall. Honest, structured and anonymous, it names the patterns people have stopped noticing and gives you a shared, safe starting point for change. Administered, debriefed and ready to act on.
Are We On The Same Page?
My Alignment Diagnostic reads your organisation across five dimensions, one of which is culture. It measures the integrity gap: how far the culture you state matches the one people live, and where the top team and the wider organisation see it differently. It ends with a clear picture and a next move.
Bring this into your team.
Each workshop is built on the framework above. Run as one-offs or as part of a wider programme.
Culture
A culture workshop helping leadership teams examine the gap between the culture they describe and the culture their people actually experience, and identify the small operating practices that close it.
On The Same Page
An open workshop introducing the full OTSP methodology, with case studies including Apple, Netflix, and Ferrari. Suitable for individual leaders and senior HR professionals.
Psychological Safety
An engaging session on what psychological safety is and how to build it. Leave with actions to take straight away.
Values
Explore what values really are and how to identify your own. Learn how to close the gap between the values you hold and how you behave.
How Culture shows up. How it fails.
When it's working
- The stated culture and the lived culture are close enough that employees recognise the organisation in its own description of itself.
- Promotion, compensation and praise visibly track the behaviour the organisation says it values.
- Difficult tensions, performance issues, and conflicts surface and get worked through, rather than being absorbed into the texture of the organisation.
- New joiners arrive into a culture that is recognisable, learnable, and consistent with what they were told before they signed.
When it's broken
- Culture statements that people inside the organisation read as fiction. Values the executive team appears to have written for a different company.
- A visible gap between what gets said in all-hands and what gets rewarded in promotion cycles.
- Behaviours that everyone tolerates because no one wants to be the one to name them. The unspoken rules that have hardened into the actual culture.
- A culture initiative that produces a new statement, a new offsite, a new training, yet no behavioural change six months later.
