WE Do

The DNA Assessment is a pioneering, customizable tool for identifying the cultural DNA of an oranization – offering leaders and teams state of the art technology for clarifying and optimally shaping their unique culture and organizational dynamics for business success.

Most extraordinary is The DNA Assessment’s ability to measure an organization’s levels of trust and alignment toward a shared vision for the future – across seven, vital success dimensions, and 49 behaviors – leading to breakthrough business results.

• Assessment data can be viewed variously: through the perspectives of the CEO, the leadership team and all levels of the organization – even through the eyes of selected customers – enabling leaders to identify how people are feeling, what they are thinking and what to focus on – in order to achieve greater business success.
   
• Predictive Matrix – another feature exclusive to The DNA Assessment is its Predictive Matrix, capable of re-sorting data – thus enabling multiple leadership teams to achieve their particular objectives by ‘seeing’ data optimally. By providing laser-sharp insights into the DNA of an organization’s culture, leaders and their teams can clearly identify, and agree on, the most important drivers of future success. This powerful dimension ensures greater accuracy in catalyzing individual, team and collaborative growth, performance and success.

DNA Executive Briefings & Workshops – augmenting The DNA Assessment are high powered, engaging executive briefings and workshops, helping leaders to transform their understanding and interpretation of DNA Assessents into action – further creating alignment, trust and a shared vision for success.

DNA Assessment

“To get to the next level of greatness, depends on the quality of the culture, which depends on the quality of relationships, which depends on the quality of conversations. Everything happens through conversations.” – Judith E. Glaser

Every culture has its own DNA - yet it is often invisible to executives. So much of what we have about our cultures are anecdotal stories, not quantitative insights that lead to action.

Imagine that you had the tools to scan your culture - in the same way that a doctor scan's the body - and that you could use those scans to understand what is creating health, and wealth and success in the future.

Now, with the use of the DNA Assessment, you can see inside your culture to understand what drives organizational dynamics and therefore what is driving your future success.

From Insights to Actions:

The Benchmark DNA Assessment is the first of its kind to give you clarity on the cultural and interpersonal dynamics of your culture. The DNA Assessment reveals your “WE-index” – which is a powerful assessment to guide your leadership team forward into how to make CHANGES - take action and build a healthy, agile culture poised to gain and sustain a competitive advantage in our fast paced world.

You will learn:

• How I-centric or WE-centric is your culture?
• How agile is your culture?
• How open, collaborative and innovative is your culture?
• What CHANGES you need to make – starting today – to drive higher levels of enthusiasm, energy and business success!

How to Get Started?

DNA Briefing and Workshop: Along with the DNA Assessment we offer executives and leadership teams high-powered, engaging Executive Briefings and Workshops that translate the “culture scans” into insights and actions.

Questions the sessions will address:

• What drives your Culture?
• What values & behaviors will lead to organizational, team and individual success?
• What shapes organizational, team and Leadership DNA?
• What can your organization do to catalyze Innovation?
• What environment leads to greater employee satisfaction and retention?
• What creates organizational focus and alignment?

Successful realignment creates a shift from a command & control environment to one that is inclusive, co-creating and values-driven. The result is a realization of common goals and strategies, while at once creating a whole new level of enterprise performance and focus – improving the power of the brand.

During times of change and/or challenge, executives easily become drawn into their own silos, where they focus on issues they can control. However, managing larger, enterprise issues is a collaborative experience requiring WE-centric skills.

Successful Alignment in the C-suite guides and engages leadership teams in working together to create roadmaps for success. C-suite Alignment provides the framework for developing ongoing conversations that encourage enterprise collaboration – creating a positive and dramatic ripple effect throughout the organization.

Aligning leadership teams around core initiatives within a client organization is vital to its ongoing health and growth. Through our consulting, summits, interventions, assessments and Co-creating Conversations Laboratories, clients learn to engage and innovate while growing their businesses organically. In the process, the organization’s leadership, culture and brand all move toward the highest, possible levels of operational performance.
