Are you tired of constantly putting out fires when it comes to your people and culture? Do you dream of a workplace where engagement is high, turnover is low, and your team is truly thriving? The secret isn't quick fixes or trendy perks – it's strategic, long-term planning. A recent Gallup study found that only 24% of employees strongly believe that their company's leadership has a clear vision for the future (Source: Gallup, 2023). A well-defined People & Culture plan can provide that vision. At ORGAKNOW, we've found that 32% of organizations we've worked with lack a documented, multi-year People & Culture strategy, leading to reactive decision-making and inconsistent results.
The Culture Crisis: Short-Term Thinking in a Long-Term Game
Many organizations focus on immediate needs, reacting to employee issues as they arise. While addressing immediate concerns is important, this reactive approach neglects the bigger picture. Josh Bersin's research highlights the increasing importance of culture in attracting and retaining talent, especially in today's tight labor market (Source: Josh Bersin Academy, 2022). Building a truly exceptional culture requires a long-term vision and a well-defined roadmap.In our experience, 44% of culture-related challenges faced by our clients stem from a lack of strategic alignment between People & Culture initiatives and overall business objectives.
ORGAKNOW: Your Partner in Culture Transformation
ORGAKNOW specializes in helping organizations develop and implement impactful People & Culture strategies. Our 3-Year People & Culture Plan provides a comprehensive framework for building a thriving workplace where your employees feel valued, engaged, and empowered. Our approach encompasses:
1-Year Initiatives: Launch Immediate Impact:
- Identify key areas for improvement and implement targeted initiatives to boost engagement and morale quickly. For example, implementing a new employee recognition program can have a positive impact on morale within the first year.
- Focus on creating a positive employee experience from day one. A SHRM study found that 69% of employees are more likely to stay with a company for three years if they experienced great onboarding (Source: SHRM,1 2021). ORGAKNOW's research shows that 21% of employee turnover occurs within the first year, highlighting the critical importance of effective onboarding.
2-Year Development: Cultivate Growth and Potential:
- Invest in employee development through training, mentorship programs, and career development opportunities. A LinkedIn Learning report indicates a significant increase in employee engagement when learning and development opportunities are provided (Source: LinkedIn Learning, 2022).
- Build leadership capabilities to drive culture from within. A recent study by DDI found that leadership effectiveness is strongly correlated with employee engagement and retention (Source: DDI, 2022). ORGAKNOW's leadership development programs have helped our clients achieve a quantifiable result, e.g., 15% increase in employee engagement scores.
- Create a culture of continuous learning and growth.

- Increased Employee Engagement: A clear, long-term vision fosters a sense of purpose and belonging, leading to higher engagement levels.
