Cultural Assessment

Have you seen a drop in engagement and deflation in the entrepreneurial spirit of your employees? If your employees have been demonstrating or communicating a level of frustration, remember that people don’t leave jobs, they leave bosses and cultures. It may be time for you to do a cultural assessment of your organization to mitigate decreases in productivity or an increasing rate of attrition. Cultural assessments evaluate your company’s culture and how macro and micro cultures affect each other, identifying what gaps need to be filled in order to achieve a strong and positive culture. At EVOLVE to Lead, we pay attention to the employee experience based on how people identify themselves through race, gender, sexual orientation, political affiliation, and more, to ensure an equitable and inclusive workplace. When EVOLVE to Lead provides a cultural assessment of your company, you will receive the following:

  • Quantitative and qualitative assessments across the organization through anonymous and confidential surveys, employee interviews, and in-person observations
  • One-Page Situation Report delivered to senior leadership that zeros in on the cultural components that impact organizational operations and employee experience

Operational Assessment

Are you looking to fix or implement your business systems but don’t know where the crack in the pipeline is? An operational assessment can help your organization identify what internal processes must be improved and codified in order for the organization to run smoothly AND in compliance with regulatory demands. When EVOLVE to Lead provides an operational assessment of your company, you will receive the following:

  • Assess disciplinary areas of operations, finance, compliance, risk, information systems, HR, etc. by surveying and observing employees in-person to determine inefficiencies and proficiencies in business processes
  • One-Page Situation Report delivered to senior leadership detailing how you can improve and codify business procedures

Strategic/Annual Planning

When assessing the impact that your organization has on your market, how do you know when the work is done? What is your measure of success? When aligning your entire organization to a shared vision or North Star, you should adapt your strategic plan every 3-5 years, and align your annual plan to those strategic pillars. At EVOLVE to Lead, we believe that people from every level of the organization should be present in this planning, inclusive of partners and those they serve, in order to achieve long-term success. When you bring EVOLVE to Lead on for your strategic and annual planning, you will receive the following:
