Culture

“Organisations don't transform, people do." - Richard Barrett

"Culture" Work supports organisational leaders to foster, embed and manage value-based, high-performing cultures within their workplaces, thereby unlocking human potential through values. 

 

My approach in summary:

 

  • Collaborate and co-create with my client to develop a phased culture transformation programme that aligns with my client's unique business needs.

  • Apply the philosophy of "less is more", delivering sustainable transformation, at minimal business interruption.

  • Link leadership development and culture with the organisation's vision and strategy, by focusing on the critical "From-To" shifts that will drive and deliver significant value.

  • Apply the latest leadership and culture research, methodologies and frameworks in the programme development, design and implementation to ensure success.

  • Measure and manage organisational culture and values using the powerful analytics of the Barrett Values Centre®.

Culture Transformation Program 

A typical programme consists of a staged implementation approach, to transform the whole of the organisational culture over a period of nine to 12 months.

​

​On a meta level, a typical programme consists of the following:

Stage 1 - Organisation-wide Culture Assessment 

​

Stage 2 - Team Alignment ​

  • Align leadership team around Shared Purpose, Vision and Values

  • Determine the critical "From-To" shifts that will drive value

  • Establish leadership commitment and energy to lead the Change Story

​​

Stage 3 - Transforming Self 

  • Transform individual leaders mind-sets to behave in a new way​​

  • Enable leaders with relational and adaptive leadership skills

  • Establish leadership commitment to role model new behaviors  

  • Monthly group coaching and support to leaders in their infield learning and adaptive challenges

​​

Stage 4 - Engage Critical Mass  

  • Cascade new values and behaviors​​

  • Make change story personal through interactive cascading to influence the critical mass 

  • Ongoing 2-way communications

  • Symbols, language, and rituals ​

  • Leaders role model new behaviors 

​

Stage 5 - Structure, Systems, and Process Alignment​​

  • Adapt and align organisational structure, systems, and processes to the new values

  • Establish and leverage reinforcement mechanisms​

​

Stage 6 - Measure Culture and Adapt

  • Measure culture using the Barrett CVA or Leadership Circle CLA and compare to baseline

  • Adapt culture transformation efforts to align with the desired cultural values
