Ever find yourself feeling that you ought to behave in a certain way? That's culture at work.

Ever find yourself in conflict with someone else because of the different ways you think something should be done? That's culture clash! How did you resolve this disagreement? By aggressively asserting your way? By opting out and apportioning the blame and responsibility to them for doing it their way? Or by using the debate to learn, improve and amalgamate the best of both approaches? That's culture change.

It is often said that culture is to an organisation what personality is to an individual.

At The Spiral Partnership, we view organisational culture as the collection of attitudes, values and ways of behaving that are demonstrated by the individuals who work for an organisation. In a positive culture, these attitudes, values and ways of behaving match the organisation's vision and help it to achieve its goals. However, all too often the opposite is the case and an organisation's culture stands in the way of its success.

Working in association with The Pacific Institute , Human Synergistics , The Star Group and Zing technology , we offer a range of survey, analysis and coaching services to:

•  identify the existing culture in an organisation (attitudes, values, expectations and behaviours)

•  identify the desired culture in which all those concerned would thrive

•  make the transition from present to desired culture.

Would you like our support with any of the stages involved in culture change?
