Your roadmap for transformation
Our award-winning Culture Assessment, recognised by the CIPD and Business Culture Awards, combines contemporary business thinking with leading organisational psychology to show how culture enables or constrains performance.
Our Culture Discovery tool provides a fast, evidence-based snapshot through our online survey. Informed by Schein’s Three Levels of Culture and Denison’s Organisational Culture Model, it reveals where culture supports success, where microcultures exist, and where leadership attention is most needed.
Culture Insight Pro goes deeper, blending data with interviews and focus groups. Drawing on Hatch’s Dynamics of Organisational Culture and Johnson & Scholes’ Cultural Web, it explores the stories, symbols and systems that shape daily experience.

Understanding across 20 metrics
Our online assessment tool looks at culture through four quadrants and 20 attributes: Leadership, Management, People and External, using behavioural statements as opposed to a standard likert scale to deliver rapid quantitative insight into the current culture.
For more complex situations, and/or where there is a desire to uncover the underlying beliefs and assumptions shaping people’s behaviours and working practices, our Culture Insight Pro uses employee focus groups and listening sessions to gain more qualitative insight – uncovering the why beneath the what.
Both versions turn cultural insight into practical action, linking people, performance and strategy.

Frequently asked questions
Our Culture Assessment™ combines quantitative data, employee listening, and leadership insight to create a clear picture of your current culture. Unlike generic surveys, it examines 20 attributes across leadership, management, people, and external perception highlighting both enablers and blockers of performance. It’s recognised by the CIPD and Business Culture Awards for its depth and rigour, giving you ongoing measurement you can trust.
The framework breaks results down by geography, function, or business unit – pinpointing where culture is aligned and where it diverges. This lets you see which teams or locations are thriving, which are struggling, and how micro-cultures are shaping performance. It means you can focus your energy where it matters most, rather than relying on one-size-fits-all initiatives.
Clients walk away with:
– A clear view of the strengths in their culture that should be reinforced
– Identification of hidden risks and underperforming areas
– Practical opportunities to boost productivity, engagement, and innovation
– A baseline measure to track culture change over time
Ultimately, it provides the insight you need to design a culture that drives strategy and accelerates performance.
The Culture Assessment™ is our award-winning diagnostic tool for understanding how culture is enabling – or holding back – your business. Culture isn’t just “how things are done”; it directly impacts strategy delivery, customer experience, retention, and growth. Without measuring it, you’re making assumptions. With it, you get a data-driven foundation for purposeful, high-performance culture change.
