COLLECTIVE CULTURE RIPPLE
Culture by Co-Design
Culture design isn’t a ‘top-down rollout.’ It’s a co-facilitated, co-designed bottom-up process that surfaces the real pain-points of your employees, maps the harm loops, and co-creates living, day to day rituals that stick. We replace slide decks with brave rooms, shared pens, and pacing that respects how humans (and nervous systems) actually change and thrive.

Walk away with (deliverables):
✓ Culture Map – A visual, plain-language synthesis of your current culture: strengths, pain-points, and harm loops.
✓ Co-Created Rituals & Practices – Tangible, repeatable actions that embed new behaviours into daily work.
✓ Behavioural Agreements – Team-written commitments that replace vague “values” with clear, lived standards.
✓ 90-Day Culture Prototypes – Low-risk experiments to test and refine new ways of working before scaling.
✓ Leadership & Staff Integration Sessions – Brave-room facilitation to align decision-makers with frontline reality.
✓ Measurement & Feedback Loop – Culturally safe indicators to track progress without weaponising data.
What you’re feeling:
Broken trust post-merger or crisis
Values posters ≠ lived behaviour
Inclusion feels tokenistic
Leader resistance or fatigue
Staff emotionally checked-out
Burnout is rising. DEI work has lost momentum. “Values” have become a whisper-net joke. Leadership wanted change - but without a roadmap, old patterns keep looping back.
