Your Business ROI

Taking the time to focus on, and build a strong, fit for purpose workplace culture is not just great for your people, it's smart business.

A healthy aligned culture will lead to increased market share, a lower cost base from greater efficiency, and higher margins from value added customer solutions, built from in-depth customer insight. In essence, culture excellence is a major feeder into business excellence.

While a similar portfolio of Glassdoor’s ‘Best Places to Work’ outperformed the overall stock market by 115.6%

The chart shows that the results linked these measures to higher share price growth.

John Kotter, world leading management guru and author of Corporate Culture and Performance conducted a research project examining the cultures of 200 companies and how each organisation’s culture affected its long-term performance.
