Solutions

At Populii our goal is to provide you the knowledge and skills you need to articulate and build towards your optimal culture. 

Your culture should be about you and your organization. Not the vision of just an external resource. 
 
Our approach is based on 3 solutions, dependent on your needs.  The solutions are designed for you to define what you need to support your organization’s cultural journey. 

Shape

The foundation of our approach, Populii Shape creates a shared understanding of culture and lays the groundwork to develop culture shaping skills within your organization.

Sustain

Ongoing and as needed cultural insight through the eyes of employees is an imperative.  “Sustain” can be achieved through our Culture Monitor™  OrgFitech tool.

 Fit

Our portfolio of tools under the OrgFitech brand helps your organizations and individuals identify where people and culture align.

Populii Sustain

The ability to sustain requires both tactics to guard and protect as well as insight into where you are on your journey. The provision of a series of learning programs around productive tactics and incredibly helpful habits build internal capability. Couple this capability with our web-based tool, Culture Monitor™ that can poll staff with quick 5 minute assessments. The combination will prevent any back sliding and ensure a continuously clear lens. The two approaches are:

  1. Guarding Culture
  2. Culture Shaping Insight

Guarding Culture

Learn how a constant cultural evolution supports the right outcomes across every team and every project  

Staying on the path towards your optimal culture can be a challenge. Embedding the right markers and having the right compass will help keep you on course and guide you to make the right adjustments on your journey to your optimal culture. 

Supporting Your Journey

Every organization approaches learning and skill development differently – in fact each organization’s culture will impact what works best for them!

The insight provided by the Culture Monitor tool can supplement (or replace) your annual “Employee Engagement Survey” by better aligning your employee input to the active factors that impact your culture.  Culture Monitor does not survey “engagement” or “satisfaction” it looks directly at how your employees feel your optimal culture is being realized, or not realized.  It ensures the integrity of the culture shaping journey.

The insight is provided through one of our OrgFitech brand of tools, Culture Monitor™. Culture Monitor is customizable and enables an organization to get a look at the state of its business culture through the eyes of its employees at any time.

Culture Monitor positions culture shaping as a proactive on-going process that enables you to actively and continuously shape culture towards your optimal target. Having quick and periodic checks, finding ways to tweak, improve and sustain the various culture factors within specific slices of the organization minimizes time and maximizes impact.

Culture Shaping Insight

Populii Fit

Both present and future employees’ individual actions and beliefs all work together to influence your business culture. Without thoughtful consideration of fit, shaping your culture may either organically conflict or align with various individual values and beliefs  In turn, they will either fuel the culture journey or become a significant barrier. 

There are two ways to look at culture fit:

  1. Hiring for Fit
  2. Seeking Fit

With CultureScreener you can assess how external candidates compare culturally alongside your existing employees.  Do they complement or conflict?  Can they add to your culture shaping journey or will they potentially derail it?

If interested, just reach out for a demo.

Ensure new employees complement or augment your culture which will expedite the journey to an optimal culture. Hiring for Fit uses CultureScreener that can assess external candidates’ culture related fit.

Hiring for Fit

Populating the SG™ with baseline information of critical factors is based on FIBS™. FIBS was originally created as a Career Management Tool, an acronym standing for Factors  Impacting Basic Satisfaction, by GH Smith & Associates developed in 1984.

This initial instrument was focused on collapsing the little white lies or “fibs” typically used to justify career-related decisions. These fibs caused distortion with career-focused decision making.  The Suitability Gauge™ helps the Job Seeker to disrupt those “fibs” as they self-evaluate and create a clearer picture for what they should be looking for in their employment journey. 

If interested, reach out for a demo.

This self reflection tool empowers individuals to understand their own personal values and how it can impact their career. It also allows Job Seekers to compare potential employers on how they might fit the Job Seekers’ personal operating style/culture. The “Suitability Gauge™” helps job seekers uncover their own personal values to see if they align with companies they are looking at as a potential employer.

Populii Shape

Populii Shape provides the knowledge and skills you need to define culture, how it influences outcomes and how you can begin to define an optimal culture.

Shape has two components:

  1. Deconstructing Culture
  2. Engineering Culture

Deconstructing Culture –

Create a consistent understanding of the mechanics behind culture and its value to your organization. 

It’s hard to build anything unless everyone has a common understanding of what is being built. This program can be shared with anyone in your organization – in fact we recommend it! 
This program is the starting point to engage your entire organization in evolving your culture, ensuring everyone understands:  

  • The mechanics of culture
  • The impact of culture – both positive and negative
  • The power of culture – both positive and negative
  • The participation of all employees in the journey.

Engineering Culture –

Develop the skills needed to embark on a journey of discovery and construct a blueprint for your organization’s optimal culture.  
We focus on 4 distinct skills you will ladder together:  

 Skill 1 – Get Stakeholders Ready

  • You can’t evolve culture on your own. You need to recognize the impacts across the organization and gather support at the same time. 
  • This is not the same as creating a project team, shaping culture is an on-going engagement; learn who to engage and how to keep them engaged.

Skill 2 – Craft a relatable values-based culture 

  • Culture must always be rooted in the personal values that are represented within your organization.
  • This might seem daunting, but identifying the components of a healthy culture will show you how you can transition values along with your culture.

Skill 3 – Align organizational realities with culture 

  • Your optimal culture must be rooted in day-to-day realities.
  • Identifying the day-to-day practices you rely on to get things done, will begin to reveal a competency framework and how it impacts culture.

Skill 4 – Make culture shaping personal

  • Your optimal culture must be seen through the lens of employees who each have their own set of habits. 
  • Identifying and proposing a common set of culture shaping practices that could be adopted as individual habits will expedite the journey towards an optimal culture.

Supporting Your Journey

Every organization will acquire and implement culture shaping skills differently – in fact each organization’s culture will impact what works best for them!
