Culture Audit
Our Culture Audit and Culture Maturity Model is a way for organisations to understand how social processes and behaviours impact on performance and organisational effectiveness. Extensive research shows that inclusive cultures lead to high performance, and we believe that greater diversity leads to better innovation and equity allows both to flourish. If you want a high-performing organisation, then addressing your culture is an essential starting point.
We use evidence to assess the cultural maturity across the organisation as well as teams and regions – allowing us to explore the nuances and great practice, as well as any areas for development. Every organisation is unique and will have a distinct culture and specific set of challenges and opportunities. This is why we use our proven methodology to ensure we take evidence and insights to draw out tailored and pragmatic recommendations that ensure the organisation makes meaningful progress relevant to their context.
“The reason I chose to take on an advisory role at the Clear Company is because I care deeply about lasting change at corporates – rather than just checkboxing or cookie cutter solutions whcih is so much of what I see out there. The Clear Company are a team of senior experts who are deep specialists that understand that driving real sustainable cultural change and performance uplift is organisation specific. “

Culture Audit Case Studies
Balfour Beatty
In 2019 The Clear Company embarked on a long-term partnership with Balfour Beatty, resulting in significant change evidence by a shift both in diversity demographics – but critically improvements in the experiences of diverse employees of 14-15% across a 2 year period, demonstrating a significant culture shift.
Our CIPD-award winning Trusted Partnership with Balfour Beatty demonstrated our ability to working seamlessly as part of the Balfour team to achieve the impactful outcomes for the organisation.
We continue to work with Balfour Beatty today delivering a broad cultural change programme called ‘Right to Respect’ across the organisation, their joint venture partners as well as their supply chain. This programme is unique in its’ breadth, depth and impact becoming a model for progressive practice across the sector and respected by regulators such as Ofwat and Ofgem.
Global Insurance Business
In 2021 the Clear Company embarked on a global audit for a global insurance and re-insurance company, focused on establishing a baseline for Culture Change globally.
A key first step on this journey was understand the status quo with regards to their culture and diversity, equity and inclusion across the business through a full employee lifecycle audit. This drew together the evidence and analysis of the current culture, DEI related issues, challenges, good practice and opportunities in the business.
The Clear Company undertook an audit of all central and country specific documentation and policy to develop a holistic view of the employee lifecycle at the business. The research team also conducted 57 stakeholder interviews and 13 focus groups with employees across 2 key business units. This included a cross section of leaders, hiring managers, new starters and employee network representatives.
The outcomes of the programme have resulted in a wide range of changes addressing the key levels of cultural change including policy and process reviews, values and critically investing in knowledge, skills and behaviours which give confidence in establishing an inclusive but high performing culture.
