Shape Shift Strengthen Your Culture
The Culture Roadmap, is a summary of the key signposts of any culture transformation. These are based on years of experience and up-to-date research. Be prepared to take these key signposts as a guide to the critical elements of your culture change. Culture transformation is not linear, there will be many factors that will push you off course. The challenge is to have a clear vision of what your culture needs to be for your organisation to succeed, have a well-defined roadmap that keeps you on track and be prepared to adjust if you get off course.
A key signpost in the Shaping phase is to analyse your culture. Our unique proprietary tool Composure Compass provides deep insights into your current culture across 8 distinctive qualities. We are also able to deep dive into specific areas of impact for your organisation that requires people to work in specific way or is likely to impact your culture such as safety, leadership, employee engagement.

What people are saying:
“The Composure team played a crucial role in helping me, my Executive team, and all our leaders to better understand the nuances of Culture, reinforcing how important it is to our growth as an organisation. In a corporate world where some struggle to deal with the concept of actually measuring Culture, their Composure Compass assessment tool enabled us to pinpoint our strengths and challenges in a clear and compelling way. This removed some ‘mythology’, and provided a platform for the necessary critical conversations, in an objective manner, with our leaders and their teams. Composure were great partners in this process, they knew when to push and challenge and when to let us step forward and own it ourselves. They demonstrated an ability to link pragmatism with a deep appreciation of the emotional responses to change.”
