Data
System
We began our work with a triangulated research programme that involved every employee from the production facility to the boardroom. The research programme involved a company-wide survey, one-to-one interviews and focus groups. This ensured there was engagement throughout the organisation, which is a prerequisite for the success of any values or cultural change programme.
Story
System
We translated the data into a series of messaging frameworks that defined the values in practical terms with clear examples of behavioural norms, excesses and deficiencies. This made it clear that the values were more than abstract concepts - it made them practical and that is what engaged the entire organisation.
Engagement
System
The final delivery included multiple presentations to every organisational level across multiple sites, outlining research conclusions, values definitions and a structured implementation strategy. The strategy included setting up a Values Working Group with strong representation from every organisational area as well as using the practical implementation of the values to enhance the employer brand.

"Cognition has been fundamental in helping us define and understand our values and our culture. Their work was invaluable in supporting us on our journey towards B Corp Certification and I can recommend them to any organisation looking to enhance their culture, attract the best talent and develop their people."
Claire Deakin - Head of HR, Tilda
Key Psychological Insight
Yet again, we demonstrated that for any employer branding and cultural change programme to be effective, it requires an understanding of behavioural science, how cognitive biases impact group cohesion and how a cohesive culture can only be built around cognitive clarity, mental well-being and personal autonomy.
