The people and culture review process
The thorough review includes:
reviewing policies, job descriptions, contracts and documents
analysing processes for hiring, managing and exiting employees
investigating results of engagement surveys
interviewing leadership, managers and team members across a variety of departments
assessing procedures
considering your employee value proposition
looking at competitors to see how your organisation compares
assessing your communication styles
taking a cultural health check
identifying your key strengths and weaknesses
reviewing structures, reporting lines and responsibilities of teams and individuals
What you get from the people and culture review
Once the review stage is complete, we then prepare and present your detailed report which includes:
key insights and results arising from the review
your organisational strengths and weaknesses when it comes to people and culture
the top challenges that should be addressed first to improve your culture, efficiency and performance
recommendations for key projects to realign your culture, processes and structure to better support your organisational goals
After the people and culture review, you’ll be equipped to better understand your key challenges and have the framework and roadmap to systematically address and improve your people and culture practices.
Who’s a good fit for this service?
Typically, people and culture review are undertaken by organisations that:
are mid-sized, with between 30-300 employees
turn over $5-20 million annually
have minimal or no in-house HR capability
are ready for (or already experiencing) a surge in growth
need systems and structures to provide better support to team members and reduce risk
Employee interviews can pinpoint specific challenges and opportunities
By speaking with a range of team members, we get a sense of how opinions vary across the organisation. We include a cross-section of team members at all levels, including senior leaders, middle managers, and junior employees. We also include team members who are relatively new to the organisation, as well as those who’ve been with the organisation for longer periods.
Having the opportunity to speak with a third party interviewer allows team members to feel comfortable expressing their opinion honestly. This enables you to gain a deeper understanding of the genuine state of play.
Don’t wait for a people crisis to strike
By taking proactive action, you can avoid larger problems down the track.
