People and Culture

This baseline assessment will dispel any misconceptions about you think it’s like to work at your organization, so you can set out creating the most functional and engaged work environment possible.

Mobilize leadership to review your diagnostic results and secure buy-in on the need for change. Here, you’ll define the challenges, qualify your desired state, and clarify the changes necessary to become the happy, engaged, and highly productive organization you want — and have the potential — to be.
Build roadmap
Craft a stepwise plan for change, engaging senior team members and other influential leaders throughout the process. You will distill your transformation journey into actionable steps with clearly defined objectives, timelines, communications strategies, resource requirements, and measures of success.
Transform the organization
Create team charters that define the roles, responsibilities, and steps for each department to create a cohesive and strategically aligned workplace. While the journey make look different for each team, the outcome should be consistent with the vision outlined in the transformation journey and roadmap.
