The Culture Scan provides direct insight into the motivational drivers and values of the entire organisation (as a whole), every department and each individual team member.
The user-friendly overview helps to analyse the current working culture and provides actionable insights to improve the internal collaboration, to resolve and avoid emotional conflicts, predict future behaviours, reduce short term sickness absence, lower employee turnover and retain talent.
About the Culture Scan
Analysing the current working culture by retrieving the organisation’s leading motivational drivers and its values
It is impossible for senior management to determine its working culture. In the end, every company is its people. Therefore, assessing and accumulating the shared believes and values of every employee working in the organization and retrieving the motivational drivers provides valuable insight into the current organizational culture.
There are many ways to describe an organizational culture. The most commonly used model is the four box culture model created by Cameron & Quinn. This model identifies four possible culture types that can exist within an organization:
- Clan Culture
- Adhocracy Culture
- Hierarchical Culture
- Market Culture
As the Culture Scan helps you to assess the values that are associated most strongly with the current working culture, categorizing these values helps to reveal the dominant motivational drivers of the organisation, and to analyse its current working culture.
For example:
- A Clan Culture will score high on the social drivers ‘Relatedness’ and ‘Personal Growth’
- An Adhocracy Culture will score high on the social drivers ‘Personal Growth’ and ‘Independence’
- A ‘Hierarchical Culture’ will score high on the social drivers ‘Status’ and ‘Certainty’
- A ‘Market Culture’ will score high on the social drivers ‘Status’ and ‘Personal Growth’
Valuable insights that enable you to:
- Clarify why an organization and its employees react, behave and perform as they do
- Resolve and avoid emotional conflicts
- Improve internal collaboration
- Create the desired working culture
- Retain talent and lower employee turnover
- Minimize short-term absences.
