Explore the Inclusion Perception Gap in your Organisation
Research suggests there is often misalignment between how leaders and the rest of the employee population perceive company culture. When leaders drive change based on their own experiences, and the lived experiences of their closest peers only, they are less likely to achieve desired results.
By inviting open and honest feedback from all employees through an anonymous survey, we can gauge how different groups of people experience the workplace with regards to five difference aspects of the organisational ecosystem. Data is compiled into a comprehensive report from which we draw meaningful insights for leaders to reflect on as part of the development journey.
There is no charge for the Culture Diagnostic, however, in order to collect a meaningful data set this option is only available to organisations where we can gather responses from >250 people.
We invite anonymous feedback from your people regarding five different aspects of your company culture:
- ‘Belonging’ – does your company culture foster a sense of inclusion for all people to thrive?
- ‘Role Models’ – do people managers have the skills to role model excellence and build exceptional teams?
- ‘Approach’ – is your vision and strategy clearly communicated and supported by the right policies, processes & data insights?
- ‘Values’ – are your workplace behaviours clearly defined and regularly reviewed through meaningful performance management?
- ‘Education’ – is there a strategy in place to continually develop and strengthen your people and teams?
