International construction and engineering organisation

A large international construction and engineering organisation wanted to support their people to make responsible decisions to enhance their position as a responsible corporation, attracting clients and employees alike. 

We worked with leaders to translate and operationalise the company’s mission into a responsible decision-making framework, combining our expertise with a deep understanding of the organisation. Sound ethical assumptions along with an understanding of the standards and norms of the organisation underpinned the frameworks construction.

The framework is being used by the Executive to make supportive, proactive, balanced, collaborative and transparent decisions when faced with ethical dilemmas. The framework continues to be rolled out and embedded into systems, process and organisational culture globally.

Big Four bank

This Big Four bank selected Deloitte to undertake an advanced culture assessment, which aimed to bring together culture and risk culture under one methodology to understand how culture affected their strategic goals and satisfied regulatory scrutiny.

We assisted the organisation in translating their purpose and values into a clear target culture of mindsets and behaviours. We then designed a culture measurement framework and approach, drawing upon both perceptions based data (survey, interviews, and focus groups) together with existing business data.

Our insights were able to provide the executive and board with new insights into how their culture was affecting their ability to deliver on strategy, and recommendations on actions to further leverage their culture to achieve their strategic goals.
