What's in this Cultural Web template
The Cultural Web as a diagram, with a line on each of the six elements: what to look at in the stories, rituals and routines, symbols, structure, power and control systems.
A one-page summary: when to use it, the steps for mapping it with a mixed group - from noting what you observe to naming the assumptions underneath - and the traps to watch for, like mapping the values on the wall instead of the everyday conditions. It's a PDF, so you can print it for a team session or work through it on screen.
Tips for using it
Use this with a cross-section of people from different levels and departments - culture looks different depending on where you sit. Work through one dimension at a time and look for patterns across all six before drawing conclusions.
Culture Change
We work with leadership teams and organisations to understand, map, and develop their culture. If you're planning a culture change initiative or want to understand what's really driving behaviour in your organisation, we'd welcome a conversation.
