What you'll learn

A signal you can act on.

  • 01A culture risk heatmap across 8 dimensions — retention, leadership, policy, ER
  • 02Where you sit on the risk curve before exit interviews tell you
  • 03The interventions that reset culture (and the ones that just generate slides)
  • 04When a third-party diagnostic is the right next step
How it works

Where culture is about to break.

Ten questions score four risk dimensions, then roll up into a single risk band — healthy, warning, or intervention — with targeted recommendations on whatever scores lowest.

  • 01Retention & engagement signals. Turnover rate, engagement-survey recency, and what exit interviews actually surface about leadership and fairness.
  • 02Policy & compliance infrastructure. Policy currency, OHSA harassment-program maturity, and whether complaints run through a documented process.
  • 03Leadership & management health. Manager training on people management and employment law, plus decision-making transparency.
  • 04Risk indicators. Recent complaint volume and compounding events — restructuring, leadership churn, rapid growth, M&A — that subtract from the score because together they create the conditions for a culture crisis.
Who it's for

Leaders who want the warning early.

  • 01CHROs and HR directors at 50–500 person companies who want a structured read on risk before exit interviews and complaints tell the story for them.
  • 02COOs and founders after a turnover spike, a harassment complaint, or a leadership change — the moments when culture quietly starts to slip.
  • 03Leaders ahead of a transaction fundraising, M&A, or a board-level culture review, where unaddressed people risk shows up as a diligence finding.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What does the workplace culture diagnostic measure?
It produces a culture risk heatmap across 8 dimensions — retention, leadership, policy, employee relations, psychological safety, DEI, manager capability, and feedback loops — with intervention priorities ranked by exposure.
How is this different from an engagement survey?
Engagement surveys measure how people feel. A culture risk diagnostic measures where culture is about to break — exit interview signal, litigation exposure, retention risk — and sequences the interventions that reset it. They complement each other.
Who should run the culture diagnostic?
CHROs, HR directors, COOs, and founders at 50–500 person Canadian companies. It is especially useful after a spike in turnover, a harassment complaint, a leadership change, or ahead of fundraising, M&A, or board-level culture reviews.
What happens after the diagnostic?
You get a heatmap with the first three interventions you should run. From there you can implement internally, bring in external support for a culture transformation program, or commission a deeper third-party diagnostic if the risk warrants it.
Is the culture risk diagnostic free?
Yes. The diagnostic is free, takes about seven minutes, and runs in your browser. You can walk the heatmap through with a culture partner afterward and leave with a sequenced intervention plan.
