Three questions every company should be able to answer

Culture State turns anonymous feedback into evidence-backed answers to the three questions that decide what happens next.

Health

How well does our culture support people and performance today? A clear reading across eight culture areas.

Alignment

Do leadership, managers, employees and units experience the organization in the same way — and where do they differ?

Focus

What deserves attention next? Evidence-backed development priorities, ordered by how much they matter right now.

Go from a first reading to deeper company insight

Choose the level of analysis your organization needs. Every plan uses the same anonymous assessment and documented framework.

Quick Check — Free

Establish your organization-wide starting point with a culture health score and executive summary.

Culture State Lite

Understand culture health and cohesion, recurring patterns, cooperation and clear priorities for action.

Culture State Full

See where experiences differ between roles or organizational groups and direct action with deeper evidence.

The analysis included depends on your plan and on the dimensions collected in the assessment.

Different groups often experience different companies

Leadership, managers and employees may all be describing the same organization while experiencing it differently. What matters is not the average score but where perspectives diverge.

Leadership perspective

Those who make decisions often experience the organization as more open, clear and participatory than those the decisions affect.

Manager perspective

Managers sit between strategy and execution, and often feel the tension of both before either side does.

Employee perspective

The same change, communication or priority can land differently across teams, locations and roles.

Why it matters

Understanding these differences early gives leadership time to adjust communication, decisions and support before they affect everyday work.

How this differs from an employee survey

Employee surveys and eNPS tell you how satisfied people are. Culture State helps the organization understand why experiences differ — and what deserves attention because of it. The two work well together.

Why experiences differ

Not just the average score, but where leadership, managers, employees, units and locations see the company differently — within the same assessment, when groups are large enough.

How cooperation works

Whether cooperation holds vertically, horizontally and across teams — or only in some directions.

Which conditions repeat

Recurring organizational patterns that appear when several findings point the same way.

What deserves attention

Evidence-backed priorities, with the findings that justify each one.

An employee survey measures the mood. Culture State explains the pattern behind it.

Leadership Insights

Observation, interpretation and recommendation for every finding that matters.

How it works

This is how organizations gain value from Culture State. It is a way of working, not a mandatory process — you decide the pace.

  1. 01

    Describe your organization

    Add your roles, locations and units so results can be grouped. The questions are the same standardized framework for every company.

  2. 02

    Listen anonymously

    Leadership, managers and employees answer the same statements on a fixed scale, anonymously.

  3. 03

    See the gaps

    The analysis compares groups and surfaces where perspectives differ significantly.

  4. 04

    Decide what comes next

    Findings become prioritized recommendations, each tied to the evidence behind it — not a score sheet.

Who it is for

Built for organizations that want to understand how their culture works in practice and develop it deliberately. Leadership, managers and HR are its everyday users.

Designed primarily for organizations with 10+ employees.

You do not need several locations, formal units or a dedicated HR team. One organization-wide view and role-based insight are enough to start.

  • Organizations with several teams or locations
  • Growing organizations
  • Organizations navigating change
  • Leadership teams and managing directors
  • HR and people functions
Organizational culture assessment

Consistent, documented and comparable

Weights, thresholds and interpretation ranges are defined before any result is produced, and the same framework is applied to every organization — so results can be trusted and compared over time.

  • One shared model across eight culture areas
  • Separate views for leadership, managers and employees
  • Group-level reporting with minimum group sizes
  • Results stay comparable from one round to the next

Privacy and anonymity

Data is processed under the GDPR, small groups are protected by reporting thresholds and no output attributes a finding to a person. No AI model processes your answers: results are produced by fixed, published rules and explained from a written interpretation library.
