LET JENA HELP YOU
gain a competitive edge with your culture
From startup to scaleup, I make sure high growth companies have the culture that best supports their business goals while providing an amazing employee experience.
No two companies are the same so there is no "one size fits all" approach to scaling culture. However there are a few core areas that you need to get right as you move towards this unique phase of growth. Jena will create a bespoke plan, but below are common service engagements.
VALUE CREATION AND INTEGRATION
Strong company values are the bedrock to any organization. Also, values need to be iterated and evolve as the organization moves to its next phase of growth. Depending on the client’s needs, we run bottoms-up values creation processes, top down, or a hybrid of the two. Once the values are in place, we will provide a Values Integration Plan to embed the values in the organization.
01
M&A CULTURE
INTEGRATION
M&A offers great potential value after companies achieve strong organic growth. However many M&A events fail because culture integration efforts go poorly or are an afterthought. We run a process that begins with the M&A Culture Assessment that pinpoints areas of friction or value between the two organizations. Based on the results, we create a customized culture integration roadmap, and ensure smooth implementation.

LEADERSHIP
DEVELOPMENT
The leaders that made your company successful in the startup phase may not be equipped to help you scale. We level up your talent so they are ready to take on this new phase of growth. Our process includes the Work Preferences and Personality Assessment for the Successful ScaleUp Employee combined with a 360 assessment, and a 6 month group coaching engagement delivered in a cohort format.
