Strategy Culture Alignment Certification
Learn to facilitate culture alignment with executive leadership in our two-day certification based on Work Effects’ Purposeful Culture model. The objective of the certification is for consultants and OD practitioners to facilitate Work Effects Strategy Culture Alignment planning sessions with CEOs of their own clients or company.
We often hear leaders say they have a “good” culture; there are strong leaders, teams are effective, etc. However, we define these as attributes of organizational health. Work Effects thinks of culture on a good-good continuum, there aren’t good or bad cultures, but rather cultures that benefit your organization’s goals and strategies.
For example, an organization’s atmosphere may be very disciplined or very social; both are good, but there may be current practices or processes that do not serve the current culture, or vice versa. By reviewing the organization’s culture one dimension at a time, leaders accurately analyze how these show up in their organization.
Through this 1/2 day planning session, the senior leadership team has enriched conversations around where they think their culture is at currently as well as where it needs to be in order to best execute the organization’s strategic goals. The session ends with outlining the dimensions that need to be prioritize and how they as leaders will cascade this to the rest of the organization.
When you graduate from our certification, you will be equipped with the tools to facilitate a conversation around culture with your clients, your organization, or Work Effects’ clients.

What Certification Graduates Say
“Work Effects provided foundation for what culture is and how to assess its alignment with business strategy, supported by both empirical and theoretical data.
