Executive Leadership: Supporting Senior Leaders

At Be Culture, we recognize the critical role that executives and senior leaders play in shaping organizational culture because our Co-Founders have held executive roles within companies, non-profits, and the public sector. Our approach reinforces and expands the tools that leaders have at their disposal and clarifies opportunities to make tangible improvements in their organizational culture and business outcomes.

Strategic Planning: Emphasizing Sustained Change Over Time

Be Culture’s strategic planning is deeply rooted in Adaptive Leadership and Beloved Community, focusing on preparing leadership for effective implementation and change management. We collaborate with senior leaders and other key constituents to develop a robust plan that leverages equitable practices as a catalyst for anticipating and managing the evolving operating environment. By integrating strategic foresight and continuous learning, we empower organizations to navigate through change effectively, ensuring that they are always aligned with their goals and are capable of leading transformation internally and externally.

Developing a Culture Strategy: Building a High-Performing, Equitable Culture

At Be Culture, developing a culture strategy involves more than setting guidelines—it’s about building an adaptive, equitable community within the workplace and with external constituents. This approach focuses on preparing leaders to use the tools of management to advance their organizational culture, ensuring they are not just administrators but true advocates of change. This enhances leaders' ability to foster a sense of shared purpose that aligns with the organization's mission, vision, and values, including diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.

The assessment scale highlights the degree to which leadership has identified, adopted, and mobilized the 5 strategic commitments that determine DEI Success.
