What is culture?
We tend to think of culture in traditional terms – our music, language, literature, our easy-going style. It’s what makes us uniquely Irish. It’s why so many people around the world want to visit us. That’s our social culture.
Organisational culture is different. It’s about your people and their impact on your business. It’s about the effectiveness of your leadership structure. It’s about the atmosphere in your workplace and how you present to your customers. Organisational culture has been described as ‘what happens when you’re not around’ and it’s either making or costing you money. Great Place to Work’ found that Fortune 100 companies with a consistent and inclusive organisational culture, outperform peers by three times in revenue growth (2018, Great Place to Work). Do you know which it is in your organisation?

What's a jigsaw without its final piece?
Culture is often the missing piece that prevents many organisations from reaching their full potential. Was Peter Drucker exaggerating when he said that ‘Culture eats Strategy for breakfast?’ We think not. While Strategy is a vital component of success, Culture is your organisation’s soul, its DNA and your people are its foot soldiers.
