Our approach

Corporate culture is created by the sum of the actions of all employees and managers. So if you want to change the culture of a company, you ultimately want to change the behavior of employees and managers.

Culture change means behavioural changeCulture change means behavioural change

How do you achieve behaviour change?

Employees have a seismographically accurate sense of what is expected of them.

  • Will I be rewarded for rule compliance? In the end, what is more important in our organization – complying with regulations or achieving a real result?
  • Does my boss expect me to succeed – whether or not I follow the official “guidelines” in doing so?
  • Who gets promoted in our country – the conformists or those who prevail in the end ?

The quickest and most efficient way to change the culture of a company is to ensure that the changed behaviour is beneficial and plausible for the employees.

changes the framework conditions for joint action.

Examples of effective frameworks for cultural change:
  • Sub-strategies and strategic goals for departments and teams
  • Target and reward systems
  • Innovation processes
  • Common understanding of“good leadership” among all managers
Important prerequisites for cultural change to succeed
  • Support and prioritization by top management
  • Continuous cooperation of representatives of the company management and/or constant feedback to the top management
  • The realization and insight that it is highly probable that the leadership culture also needs to be “put to the test” – i.e. that one’s own leadership behavior may also have to change in order to sustainably change the culture of an organization.
  • Sufficient resources throughout the project phase
  • A powerful project team is available throughout the entire project period. Key stakeholders in the culture change process are involved, e.g. HR, works council and staff council.
  • … and last but not least, a strong, recognized and proven project management with sufficient resources that is ideally excellently networked within the company.
Project examples for the change of corporate culture
  • You can find project examples on our overview page “Project examples and references“.

Consulting on corporate culture: Here’s how we proceed

  1. Defining the goals of culture change
    • How does management know that a culture change is needed?
    • How do the subsequent management levels – and the employees – see it?
    • What need for change results from this?
  2. Analysis of the ACTUAL culture
  3. Definition of the TARGET culture
    together with the top management
  4. Delta analysis
    • What is the difference between TARGET and ACTUAL?
    • Which fields of action result from this?
  5. Identification of the “culture-shaping elements”: Which framework conditions are responsible for the behaviour of the employees (i.e. for the emergence of the existing current culture)?
  6. How are these framework conditions to be changed in such a way that new behaviour in the sense of the desired TARGET culture is logical and meaningful for the employees and the actual behaviour is permanently aligned with the TARGET culture?
  7. Derivation of measures, development of an action plan
  8. Design of a coordinated “change architecture
  9. Initiation and support of the implementation phase
    • Follow-up during the entire project period

Consulting Corporate Culture: Our Range of Services

  • Definition of the goals of the culture change process
  • Analysis of the currently existing corporate culture
  • Identification of the most effective starting points and “longest levers” with which a cultural change in leadership and cooperation, leadership culture and corporate culture can be brought about efficiently
  • Derivation and implementation of the necessary measures
  • Monitoring and follow-up of the overall process

Depending on the context and the initial situation, we can take on different roles:

  • Accompanying the cultural change process as “sparring partners” in the role of advisory coaches
  • Advising a project team or management body
  • Work with executives and / or governing bodies
  • Coaching and consulting of executives in all phases of preparation, implementation, quality control
  • Or also assumption of operational responsibility, if required or desired
