Making Culture make Sense. Myths, Methods & Missteps!

Culture. It’s talked about daily in workplace conversations and regularly in the media as part of critical commentary on business health, performance and in some cases, demise! Some organisations take it seriously and invest in shaping and managing culture, others do a lot more talking than doing and still many believe it’s intangible and impossible to measure or manage.

When you consider the big questions being asked of organisations and leaders today, there’s an underlying and often unasked question that is critical to success. Does our culture support our performance goals, enable us to delivery on our strategic objectives, and support our ability to evolve and change with the times?

Predictions for 2024 and beyond are that it will soon be commonplace for boards and executive teams to measure, monitor and report on culture rather than engagement, and that there is a growing expectation that the link between culture and business performance outcomes are made clearer in this work. In our 2023 State of Culture research, we found that even though culture was being discussed at board and C-suite level, very few organisations were investing in it.

In our first Talking Point for 2024 we’ll be focussed on creating real value for those attending! Not only will we share current research and tools to equip you in lifting the bar on culture measurement and change in 2024 and beyond, you’ll also be among the first to gain free limited time access to our PerformX Culture Assessment for your organisation.

What we’ll be exploring:

Why your CEO and Board will want to know more about culture this year
Why measuring employee engagement in isolation won’t help you improve performance
Why organisational culture should be measured and what it will help you achieve
Frameworks for defining culture and its link to organisational performance
How organisations can link culture with strategy
What Culture Blueprinting involves.
