How to use it!
Before you start
Not all of your employees are rowing
in the same direction!
What does this really mean for your Company Culture or Corporate Culture or Organizational Culture, and how can you solve it?
You have decided to explore your sweet-spots and Exploit your blind-spots.
"If you can’t measure it, you can’t improve it" says Peter Drucker. Measure once is a happening. Culture exploiting is a continuous improvement.
Before you start measuring the culture
- It is important to make it well known to the organization why and what an intended purpose is.
- It is important for you as a manager to really want to improve the culture in the organisation, even if you may have some aha experiences along the way. If you are not ready for change, don't do this.
When to use it
Development of organizations
If you have a goal in mind, it is important to know where you are in order to reach your goal. Most organizations know too little about the people who work there. Their assumptions are often based on opinion rather than facts. With the help of our tool, you will find out where you are and by checking out the leadership qualities and the behavior of the employees, the possibilities and speed of getting where you want will also become visible.
M&A processes
In Merger & Acquisition processes, speed and a good plan is important, even for knowing the people involved! It is important to have a map and a compass to take the right steps in the right direction, as fast as possible.
- Know what challenges you face when it comes to the people in the organization.

Observe the results
People awareness
How to visually see the unknown known. To change culture, you depend on people with the expected behavior. By mapping what behavioral tendencies there are, it will be easier to create a strategy based on the strengths of the employees. Set plans for activities which highlights the need of change and developments and you will succeed.
Focus areas -By choosing what is important at department level, it will make it easier for the immediate leader to focus on what is important. Perform development as closely as possible. Compare the results from the measurement with other KPIs you use today on, among other things, sickness absence, performance and how many and why employees leave the organization.
All this contributes to large increased costs. Maybe you can find the answers in the measurements?
Valuate strenghts and opportunities
People power
By adapting development needs for each department based on strengths and needs, we focus on future success by development of individuals, teams and organizations.
Top-performing employees create extraordinary results that provide a solid foundation for business growth.
Team specific pulse surveys - When the first measurement has been carried out, a decision must be made about what are the most important focus areas for each department. Once it has been decided, a development course must be created based on the selected focus areas. Based on this, department-specific pulse measurements are made to reveal monthly the effect of the development course. Quick and agile changes can then be made where the desired effect is not achieved.
Elevate the possibilities
People tomorrow
Train and develop - Training classes, coaching 1 to 1 and 1 to many, workshops, tooltip for leaders are different forms of development for leaders and employees.
In order to check what potential there is for change, it is now also possible to measure which skills the leader has that are important for the focus areas. The behavior of the employees that affects the focus areas can also indicate the possibilities for change.

Personal framework conditions (stress tendencies)
We also measure 16 personal framework conditions divided into: How it is today and how it should be. Employees choose which of these 16 are most important to them in their work.
Survey
The survey can be completed both on PC/Mac or smartphones. The employees do not have to carry out the measurement continuously. When they start again, they will always start up where they last left off.We measure with a 7 degree Likert scale. Likert scale is a psychometric scale often involved in research that is used in questionnaires. It is the most commonly used approach to scale responses in surveys, so that the term provides the most accurate distribution possible.Culture Exploit is a SaaS solution (subscription). This means that the product is cloud-based and does not need installation on each individual PC/Mac.
Reports
36 cultural dimensions divided into 9 groups with full filtering for: department, age, seniority, gender and organizational level. In order to define all strengths and challenges, it is important to start broadly so that we do not miss any blind spots. In the "Heatmap" report, managers get a full overview on one page of the entire organization with their strengths and challenges. With this insight, they will clearly see which opportunities for changes produce results for both the organization and the employees.Included in the main survey is also a full "Diversity, Equality, Inclusion and Belongings" report which highlights the demographic diversity in the organization as a whole and by department, and answers to questions linked to this.
