Module 3 – Lesson 2

In this lesson you’ll learn:

    • What the COREculture report looks like 
    • What information is contained in the report 
    • The four pillars of culture 
What is the COREculture report

The COREculture report shares team members’ responses to questions about 4 pillars of culture: communication, cohesion, identity, and impact.  The results help teams intentionally assess their culture.  

With scores for each group on your team (ex: managers, direct reports, etc.), a bar graph (5 low, 25 high) indicatesthe team’s response to each area of culture. 

The cover page shares an overview of the scores for each of the four pillars: 

Subsequent pages look at each metric individually, sharing a clear definition and explanation of that pillar of culture. Each page also shares a set of questions teams can use to improve that aspect of their culture. 

Example of a summary page for one of the 4 pillars of culture

The COREculture scores are not meant to be a report card grade, but a temperature reading.  How are we doing in these areas right now? 

By leading your team through open discussion about their results, you help them identify areas of strength as well as areas in need of attention.  The questions on each pillar of culture page serve as a simple take-away tool to use tofurther conversation.  

The COREculture report can be used:  

  • With strong teams that want to get even better 
  • With teams that are experiencing challenges and desire to address the core issues 
  • When reorganization happens, or new team members are hired 
  • Annually, to keep team culture discussions at the forefront
