workplace culture transformation
Transform Workplace Culture Through The Power Of Unwritten Ground Rules (UGRs).
WHAT ARE UGRs
UGRs Are People’s Perceptions Of ‘This Is The Way We Do Things Around Here’
Examples of UGRs in the workplace include:
- At our meetings it isn’t worth complaining because nothing will get done.
- The only time anyone gets spoken to by the boss is when something is wrong.
- The company talks about good customer service, but we know they don’t really mean it, so we don’t really have to worry about it.
UGRs in a company constitute its culture. Understand UGRs and you understand culture.
Our UGRs methodolody enables business leaders and employees to truly understand their current workplace culture and intentionally transform it into one they actually want to be a part of.

A Focus On Future Success
Our approach resonates with leaders and employees (everyone ‘gets’ UGRs), promotes and enables individual ownership of the culture, and provides practical tools and strategies for leaders and staff.
Most importantly, our approach centres on those aspects of the culture that are crucial to the organisations’ future success-we are advocates of getting strategic with workplace cultures.

How We Do What We Do
Conference presentations
Our speakers Stef and Steve are global conference speakers of the highest standard. Having won just about every award in their respective country’s speaking profession (in South Africa the top speaking award is named after Stef!).
UGRs STOCK TAKE
Thanks to world-first research into UGRs conducted alongside two Australian universities, we have created a completely new way of unearthing the prevailing UGRs via what we call a UGRs Stock Take.
workshops
Our workshops dig deep into UGRs – what they are, how they drive people’s behaviours and what can be done to align UGRs with those aspects of the culture necessary for the organisation’s future success (or to align with current Values).
Train the Trainer
A powerful approach to developing in-house expertise in culture change involves us training UGRs Champions. Normally undertaken after a UGRs Stock Take, the Champions can be involved in analysis of the Stock Take results.

What Leadership Isn’t
In my mid 20s, I was seconded from my role as a teacher into the head office of the Education Department. During the five years I spent in head office, I was invited to be part of a team that provided leadership training to school leaders. I remember that one of the first sessions
