Organizational Culture Transformation/Creation Consulting/Training

Create Your Positive Highly Productive Corporate Culture

Easily, Quickly, and Effectively!

Onboarding Level 2

Here at TLI, we understand how critical designing, implementing, and maintaining a corporate culture that ensures the individuals as well as the organization is positioned to thrive, not survive!

Unfortunately, most people don’t understand the complexity and contents of an empowering, engaging, positive, and supportive, winning culture. It’s not a one and done activity but rather a continuous focused effort to implement and maintain. The most timely, effective, and painless manner to ensure success, is to have the experts here at TLI guide and assist you in your culture transformation efforts.

Expert Led Culture Change:

When we undertake a culture change, we align the leadership culture and the proscribed operational culture. Meaning we tailor your standard of communication, leadership culture, as well as your processes and systems (composed of macro and micro factors) so they are streamlined and fully aligned with, and focused on, efficient mission achievement.

This is done through our proprietary organizational analysis, various types of training, follow-up activities, program evaluation and secondary (reinforcement) support activities.

Self-Administered Culture Change and Tools:

Whether we do it for you or you choose to attempt to design and implement a new culture; understand, it is an intensive long-term effort that must be fully supported by all stakeholders to have a shot at success. It definitely helps if you have at least a basic knowledge of project management techniques. A culture transformation/change or creation is nothing short of a dynamic project.

We have created a body of knowledge and template available for those who wish to take the “do it yourself” approach.

Culture

Your corporate culture is the determiner of the health and productivity of the organization. Most corporate cultures were not created to be healthy and productive but rather, were formed randomly from the personalities present in the nascent organization. 

If you want a healthy productive culture you must create it, because they don’t just form that way. A healthy productive workplace culture is an EKO-System (A TLI designation)  with three prevalent key factors in its environment. A defined standard for communication, leadership and processes and systems.

Communication

A healthy organizational culture operates through positive communication interactions. All employees treat one another with dignity, respect and honesty. People communicate assertively. Meaning, all communication shared is Mission focused, fact based, results oriented, with no negative emotions. It allows people to focus on the content and the mission instead of being upset at how they feel they were spoken to. This makes the work environment emotionally positive and engaging.

Leadership

The second key factor in the feel and performance of an organization is its leadership culture. 

Negative and closed leadership cultures are those where the leaders share little information, show little or no appreciation, use negative communication and actively seek to blame for undesirable results. A healthy organization creates a positive and open leadership culture where leaders are promoted from within and are trained for a leadership position by positive example and through daily operations. Leaders share all needed information openly and quickly. Leaders take the time and have the skills, to cultivate a positive relationship with every employee, as well as, cultivating positive relations between employees. All communications are assertive and focused on mission accomplishment. Planning and communication are focused on what to do to achieve the desired result, not what not to do to avoid failure. Leaders set the example through positive actions and behaviors consistently.

7 General Responsibilities of a Leader

2. Communications effectiveness
3. Direction/guidance
4. Personal/professional support
5. Consistent follow-up

Operations – Processes and Systems

A healthy organizational culture has efficient processes and systems that are refined and streamlined to serve their function in the most efficient manner possible. These processes and systems are also focused on positively serving the workforce not functioning to an individual’s liking. Operational functions are standardized, taught during on-boarding, and used by all. The processes and systems are reviewed periodically to discover if refinement or adjustment would be beneficial, as required by the nearly constant environmental change of today’s workplace and economy. 

Creating Your Culture

Creating this three key factor EKO- System as we call it at TLI, isn’t hard, but it does take specific knowledge, patience, and commitment! It requires adopting performance standards and ensuring they are followed by everyone. These activities and behaviors  must become the habits of the workforce so operations are fluid and predictable; standardized, yet adaptable, familiar yet constantly refined. 

At TLI, we have developed training that provides these three key factors and creates a healthy and positive workplace culture. This culture transformation/creation is achieved by a suite of training courses (Onsite or online), that immerse your staff in the knowledge, skills, and techniques that create an assertive communication environment and a sustainable positive leadership succession culture and operation. In addition, the training provides the knowledge, skills and understanding of planning, organizing, executing, monitoring, and completing tasks and projects on time and within budget. 

Removing toxicity from a culture, or building one that is positive and highly productive, only requires adopting the standard practices and behaviors that remove negativity from the workplace and ensuring these practices are used by your entire staff all the time. You train your staff on the standards, ensure the organization commits to the standards and then adopt the standards for daily operations. With the commitment and the standards adopted and implemented, the change will rapidly produce the desired positive results.
