Culture Design Projects
Our signature consulting project includes a culture assessment, the development of a set of clear culture priorities, and then a robust culture playbook full of specific changes that will align your culture with what makes you successful. We call it culture design, and we’ve been doing it successfully with organizations from a variety of industries since 2016. This takes six months or longer and touches every corner of your organization, but the results are tremendously powerful.
Specific Interventions and Workshops
You also have the option of diving into the specific issues that are causing the most friction for you. We help leaders prepare for the Hybrid Workplace, we provide facilitated senior management retreats, and we provide training for staff in conflict resolution, as well as other focused projects.
These projects generate quick change and quick (but meaningful) results.
Why work with us?

We know our stuff.
We have decades of experience in culture transformation, as practitioners, researchers, and thought leaders. Our books—Humanize, When Millennials Take Over, The Non-Obvious Guide to Employee Engagement—provide both theory and practical case studies that start to define the future of work. We built all that expertise in to both the WorkXO assessment (now part of QuestionPro Workforce), our Culture Management Maturity Model, and our consulting. Current projects are informing our next book right now.
Working with us gives you access to the cutting edge of the culture management field.
We’re practical.
We are not in the business of tweaking client cultures to look or sound cool. We are in the business of designing cultures that work. Pool tables and beer fridges? Only if those help drive your success. Whatever Zappos is doing? No – unless you happen to be working at Zappos. You will do the work of clarifying what YOUR culture is and needs to be, but then we’ll make sure that you actually deliver on those ideas, down to the level of changing individual behaviors inside your organization.
Working with us brings you tangible results.

We focus on you.
All of our services focus on building YOUR capacity—not making you reliant on us. We know our help is critical to you building a culture that is aligned with what drives your success, but we also know that if you can’t eventually do this on your own, we haven’t done our job.
