CULTURE DESIGN BLUEPRINT
What is the Blueprint?
It is a tool for capturing, visualising, designing and evolving the way things are done at your organisation aka your company culture.
​
The blueprint brings everything together to create a strong foundation for designing the desired culture in a simple yet powerful one page format.
How is the Blueprint used?
The blueprint has been designed with three use cases in mind:
Capturing your existing culture - visualise the current culture on one page, identify gaps and areas for improvement
Designing your desired culture - an ideation tool if your organisation does not have a well-defined culture
Evolving your culture - taking your current culture to the next level by exploring what does and doesn’t work
It is also useful for:
Mergers and acquisitions - identify clashes and bring cultures together following a merger
