Culture is easier to shape than to fix.
If you're just starting out or scaling up, there's a unique opportunity to be intentional about your culture. We help early-stage businesses build strong foundations — identifying the key ‘cogs in your culture wheel’ and making sure they’re all aligned and moving in the right direction.
The result? A culture that attracts the right people and supports sustainable growth.
Sometimes it’s leaders who need the lift — maybe they’ve never been taught the ‘how’ of leading.
Sometimes it’s teams who need support to build trust, have the tough conversations, or simply work better together.
Whatever the case, we design and deliver leadership coaching, team training and facilitated workshops that help your people feel more confident, capable and connected.
Topics we love to cover:
- How to give (and get) feedback that doesn’t
make people squirm;
- Building psychological safety and emotional intelligence;
- Turning stress and burnout into balance and performance;
- Having tricky conversations without losing your cool (or your team);
- Leading with empathy, consistency, and a bit of humanity.
Whether it’s 1-on-1 coaching, group training, or a team workshop with purpose — we’ll tailor the format, tone and content to suit your people and goals.
We're thrilled that you can see the benefits behind investing in your culture and people. One of the key strategies to workplace engagement is fostering a two-way dialogue. This involves not only being transparent and forthright with staff but also actively listening to their opinions and suggestions.
There are many formats in which you can achieve this, such as:
Sometimes the culture cogs feel a little out of sync. You can sense the friction — a few clunky processes, a disconnect in communication, maybe even some grumbles in the background.
Our Cultural Health Check takes a fresh, independent look at how your culture is really operating — and what’s needed to make it hum.
We explore what’s working, what’s wobbling, and where a few smart tweaks (or bigger shifts) could make a lasting difference to engagement, trust and alignment. No fluff — just honest insights and practical recommendations to help your people and your business thrive.
When employee conduct crosses the line, a well-structured and impartial investigation helps protect your people, reputation and business — while ensuring procedural fairness throughout.
Workology Co delivers investigations with clarity, care and compliance. Drawing on both legal and HR expertise, we gather the facts, assess the evidence, and provide a clear report of findings.
Where requested, we can also offer tailored recommendations to address any contributing cultural factors.
When it comes to getting to the core of your culture's health, it's important to seek independent assistance outside of your organisation, in order for your team to talk freely.
Working with your internal team, clients love that Ali feels like an extension of theirs. Choosing to work in close collaboration and customising the approach in line with your culture and company objectives.
Our Director, Ali, is a former Employment Lawyer. So, while she doesn't provide legal advice, she does have the technical expertise to ensure that her proactive recommendations consider employment risks. But wait, there's more.
