Culture Assessment
Culture is the bedrock of organisational identity, shaping behaviours, decisions and interactions at every level. A strong, cohesive culture fuels strategy, drives engagement and enables sustainable success. Yet research shows only 20% of organisations actively manage their culture — leaving a critical driver of performance to chance.
We believe if you’re not measuring culture, you’re not managing it. Our Culture Assessment services help you understand your current culture, define the culture needed for future success, and align your talent strategy accordingly. Through our proprietary TRANSEARCH Orxestra® methodology, we deliver actionable insights that empower Boards, CEOs and executive teams to build a culture that supports your strategic ambitions.
Culture Workup
Our Orxestra® Culture Workup assesses both your current culture and the culture required for future success, across 16 key parameters. This provides a clear roadmap for your Board, CEO, and People & Culture team to align leadership, strategy, and organisational behaviours.
Understanding the gap between today’s culture and tomorrow’s needs helps define the leadership competencies necessary for success, ensuring new executives and team members are well-positioned to thrive. The Culture Workup can be delivered digitally or in person with our experienced consultants.
Culture Mapping
To attract and retain leaders who align with your organisation, you need a deep understanding of your cultural DNA. Our Orxestra® Culture Mapping process reveals the shared beliefs, behaviours, and unwritten rules that define your organisation — and helps you align your talent strategy with them.
How Culture Mapping Enhances Executive Search:
- Clarity on Culture:
We map your current culture through stakeholder interviews, surveys, and workshops to capture what makes your organisation unique. - Alignment with Strategy:
By identifying the culture you aspire to create, we help you find leaders who can both fit in and drive cultural evolution. - Informed Candidate Assessment:
We compare candidates’ leadership styles and values to your unique culture map, ensuring those recommended will integrate effectively and drive long-term impact.
The Benefits of Culture Mapping:
Integrating Culture Mapping into the Orxestra® methodology enables you to:
- Reduce the risk of misalignment between leaders and organisation
- Accelerate leadership transitions and their success
- Build a cohesive, high-performing leadership team aligned with your strategy
