Culture
Intentionally embed your culture
Growing and sustaining a healthy culture can feel like wrestling with clouds. We support you to understand, articulate and steer your culture so that it is aligned to your vision and strategic goals. We co-design the approach with you, so that the culture-setting parts of your organisation are engaged, motivated and aligned.
VALUES AND BEHAVIOURS
Articulate what matters.
We help you to hone in on the values that truly matter to your organisation, and which bring its culture to life in ways that everyone can relate to. We facilitate workshops with you that articulate your values in language, which is vibrant, memorable, and uniquely you. If you already have your values, we will support you to ground these in clear and transparent behaviours that everyone can then work to hold each other accountable on.
CULTURE DEVELOPMENT
Become your future.
We work with you to map what your current culture looks like, and to articulate the future you’re seeking to bring to life. Together we design a program of change that will steadily and incrementally embed new mindsets and behaviours, moving you toward your future. We help you to break the components down, phase them over time, and into projects that fit with the rhythm of your business as usual. With our support, you gain a culture change approach that is pragmatic, effective and ensures accountability to the goal.
CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Steer change with skill.
We support you to define the change you are needing and to co-create an approach that will support it becoming the new normal. Together with you we’ll understand and shape activities that put your people into a ‘towards’ state around the change and bring them on the journey so that they’re leading. Our experience in change spans organisational, service and site mergers, culture change, and strengthening domains like agility and innovation. We bring a systemic and practical approach.
"Sarit has been an incredible support to the Equality Institute as an organisational coach over the past 18 months. She has supported us in navigating a period of intense growth and change, provided considered leadership training and consultation, undertaken a listening exercise with the broader team, and facilitated workshops to strengthen our values and ways of working.
She is warm, welcoming, thoughtful, and brings deep expertise and wisdom on inclusive leadership. At the same time, she has a unique understanding of the social justice space and how to balance for purpose with sustainability. Our whole organisation is in a stronger and more connected place because of the work of Leadership Space.”

"We engaged Leadership Space for our staff and leadership team to refocus our annual priorities and engage in a conversation that brought to life our values.
The responses we received from everyone who participated were incredible, with each and every person walking away inspired and empowered. The impact of day with our staff was invaluable, and will allow us to continue to deliver on our mission with renewed focus and energy.
The workshops really delivered on our objectives and it was an absolute pleasure to work with them at every stage."

“We really appreciated the involvement of the Leadership Space team in our event, it enabled us to maintain impartiality, and ensure authenticity of the feedback that was garnered from the roundtables - which were an excellent idea of theirs too!
We learned a lot from the honest and heartfelt feedback about the state of our industry, and the recommendations from the group were insightful and powerful and we hope will be adopted to positively impact everyone we represent.”

Leveraging the Lumina Spark insights we were able to clarify our team purpose, focus and behaviours we want to role model. we appreciate the care and kindness they exhibited with us, and we are grateful for their support.”
