Consulting for cultural development and cultural change
Cultural work should promote corporate goals such as establishing a performance culture, greater employee engagement, stronger customer focus, an agile culture, or open feedback. However, these goals often remain unachieved. The reason for this is hidden problems such as unresolved conflicts, a lack of appreciation, and unclear performance criteria, which significantly hinder progress. With our corporate culture consulting, you can overcome these obstacles.

With our iterative 3-phase consulting approach, we overcome typical obstacles and achieve sustainable effects in corporate cultural development. Direct implementation in your organization ensures focus and enables you to achieve results quickly.
1. Thinking Culture
Effective change requires clarity: What problem are we solving, and what goal are we pursuing?

In the Clarity Check, we work with selected executives to:

Analysis of the current situation and identification of cultural factors at all three levels that are relevant to the change.

Together with various groups of managers and employees, we make the culture visible (Culture Check):

- basic assumptions
- External factors

Defining the framework conditions, planning measures, and step-by-step implementation in your organization.
3. Working on Culture
Together with relevant managers and organizational units, we implement cultural change within the company, taking the following into account:
- hypotheses

- Preparatory tasks
We rely on an iterative approach to achieve significant progress quickly. This allows us to demonstrate initial successes, such as an agile culture or a performance culture, at an early stage. This creates certainty and demonstrates the benefits of change.

What our customers say
The check for your corporate culture
Together with our cooperation partner Big Pictury, we have incorporated our experience in corporate culture consulting into a Culture Check and presented it as a Big Picture. The Big Picture visualizes the visible and invisible aspects of a corporate culture. It uses exemplary scenes to show how your own culture can be reexamined and analyzed.

When it comes to change projects, corporate culture can either contribute to success or act as an obstacle. The Big Picture with its reflective questions helps you understand your corporate culture. This allows you to identify early on which pitfalls you need to work on so that your "culture doesn't eat your strategy for breakfast."
