Our Transformative Culture Change Framework

Our agile and co-creative approach is built on four key pillars, each designed to ensure that culture change is both responsive and sustainable.

Agile culture change centered in co-creation

Culture change isn’t achieved through one-size-fits-all solutions. It requires adaptability, inclusivity and a commitment to co-creating the future together with your teams. That’s why our approach is informed by agile methodology, deeply rooted in diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) principles and designed to meet the evolving needs of your employees in real-time. By centering co-creation and continuously iterating on solutions, we ignite transformative culture change that not only solves today’s challenges but also paves the way for sustained success.

Transforming cultures by leveraging the power of agile methodology

Agile isn’t just for product development—it’s a powerful approach for culture transformation, too. In today’s fast-moving world, waiting months or years for culture initiatives to take root is no longer an option. Agile gives us the flexibility to break down big culture challenges into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing us to test and implement solutions rapidly while adapting to new insights and feedback along the way.

Key benefits of our agile approach:

  • Speed: Quickly test and implement new ways of working, shortening the time to impact.

  • Adaptability: Respond to evolving organizational needs and continuously refine solutions.

Putting people at the center with co-creation

True culture change happens when the people most impacted by the challenges are involved in designing the solutions. We work alongside your teams and leaders to co-create strategies and solutions that reflect the unique needs, values and goals of your organization. Our co-creation process ensures buy-in from the very beginning and builds a culture of ownership and inclusion that drives lasting change.

Key elements of our co-creative approach:

  • Inclusive Collaboration: Engage employees from all levels and backgrounds to design solutions that resonate.

  • Diverse Perspectives: Leverage the insights of those most affected by cultural shifts to ensure the solutions are relevant and inclusive.

  • Shared Ownership: Empower teams to take responsibility for implementing and sustaining change, creating a ripple effect of engagement and innovation.

Igniting intentional impact anchored in core DEI principles

We generate greater impact by ensuring our approach is intentional every step of the way. This is made possible through a deep commitment to the core principles of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in every aspect of our approach. This commitment allows us to create better solutions that lead to environments where all employees feel valued and empowered to contribute to their fullest potential.

Key elements of our DEI-focused approach:

  • Inclusive Frameworks: We design initiatives that embrace diverse perspectives and experiences, leading to richer insights and more innovative solutions.

  • Equitable Practices: We help organizations identify and dismantle any barriers that hinder participation and advancement for all employees.

  • Sustainable Change: Our DEI principles are integral to the fabric of our strategies. This intentionality fosters a culture of accountability, enabling teams to commit to long-term change.

A step by step process for progress

01. Assess

We begin by understanding where your culture stands today. Using data-driven assessments, pulse checks, focused listening sessions and employee engagement surveys, we identify the gaps and opportunities within your organization’s current culture. This creates a foundation for the work ahead, ensuring that every step is informed by real-time insights.

02. Co-Create

In partnership with key partners from across your organization, we co-create solutions through our agile strategy sprints. By engaging those closest to the challenges, we develop strategies and solutions that are meaningful, actionable and ready to be implemented.

03. Iterate and Innovate

Once the initial prototype solutions are designed, we test, refine and improve through rapid iterations. This ensures that the solutions are adaptable to the evolving needs of your organization, and allows us to continuously gather feedback and make improvements along the way.

04. Implement and Scale

With buy-in from all levels, we help you implement solutions that lead to tangible culture shifts. Our hands-on support extends to scaling these initiatives across your organization, ensuring that the impact is felt company-wide. We also provide ongoing benchmarking and data analysis to track progress and make any necessary adjustments.
