HENRY REED's approach is guided by our Model of Organisational Effectiveness
To achieve organisational effectiveness through culture and leadership, it is essential to understand the foundations, frameworks and impacts on employee behaviour.
Culture is often described as ‘the way we do things around here’. It is unique to every organisation. It is the ‘magic’ that, when optimised, delivers results, mitigates risks and creates competitive advantage.
HENRY REED's Model of Organisational Effectiveness links the elements that are essential for creating a workforce that is engaged, aligned and accountable.
IDENTITY
FRAMEWORKS
LEADERSHIP
EXPERIENCE
IMPACT
The core elements of your identity must be more than words on a page or posters on a wall. Your purpose, vision and values should represent who you are as an organisation, describe what is most important to you and the impact of what you do.
Your identity informs your culture and your brand, and sets you apart from your competition.
Your culture is supported and guided by your governance, strategy and risk frameworks. These form the boundaries for upholding standards, guiding decisions and actions, enabling ways of working, and aligning activity to achieve what is most important. Your frameworks embed culture for sustainability.
Your leaders have the greatest impact on culture, both positive and negative. They are responsible for influencing others, upholding standards, engaging individuals, and inspiring performance. Leadership behaviours across your organisation must be consistent, aligned to identity and positively impact experience.
The experiences of your employees, customers and other stakeholders build your reputation and can be the difference between attracting and retaining the best employees, growing your business through your customers, and standing out in your industry. Understanding experience and creating desirable experiences is key for intentional culture design.
The impact of your culture is often identified through business metrics such as employee turnover, absenteeism, complaints, financial or reputation or compliance risks, and observed behaviours. This is often the starting point for many organisations to act on culture. Proactively creating culture provides an opportunity to positively manage culture impact.
