Building Cultural Capital

In an age of increasing global and local competition, the ability of an organisation to build a corporate culture that attracts and retains talented people is rapidly emerging as the most important criterion for financial success. Companies around the world are increasingly focusing on building their Cultural Capital. They are attempting to create vision-guided, values-driven organisations that focus on employee fulfilment, customer care and leadership development. Not only are these companies attracting and retaining the best people, they are also outstripping their competitors in building shareholder value. Our research shows that the most successful, high performance organisations show a strong alignment between personal and current culture values, and current culture and desired culture values.

Organisations worldwide are using values assessments to:

  • Support leaders in building values-driven organisations
  • Design, implement and monitor cultural change programs
  • Determine the organisation’s current and desired cultural values
  • Develop strategies and plans to attract and retain the best employees
  • Identify cultural strengths and gaps
  • Increase employee satisfaction, engagement and performance
  • Design leadership development programs
  • Coach leaders and provide 360° feedback
