An organisational culture assessment examines the attitudes, behaviours, beliefs and informal rules that shape how people work and make decisions inside a business. Unlike a pure HR review, it links culture to strategy — for example, whether a growth or customer agenda is being blocked by siloed working, risk aversion or unclear accountability. Consultants will typically use surveys, interviews and focus groups, plus comparison with desired “to-be” behaviours, to identify misalignments. The findings then feed into change programmes, leadership development, communications and sometimes operating-model redesign. This kind of assessment is especially valuable during integrations, rapid scaling, or when performance is lagging despite a strong strategy on paper. The aim is to make culture an enabler of execution, not a hidden drag on it.
