CultureWise
Enabling people to be heard
Surveys are at the core of the work we do, whether individual, team-based, company-wide or a whole community.
WE SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND
We believe that great things can happen when we ask questions, really listen to the answers, then use the insights and support clients to make positive change.
WELLBEING & PRODUCTIVITY PROGRAMME
In these turbulent times, great leaders are required more than ever. They may just need more support than ever too.
Our Wellbeing & Productivity Programme assists leaders to maximise their personal wellbeing, productivity and growth, ultimately to make them feel good and support improved business performance.
As retaining and attracting great staff becomes increasingly difficult, it's important to invest in leaders, to show they are cared for and supported as individuals.
We help leaders address the balance between their work and personal commitments, get very clear on their goals and help them build a fence at the top of their own health cliff.
A detailed personal survey begins the process, including questions about goals, balance, current work environment, energy, productivity, mindset, mental and physical health, stress, nutrition, sleep and exercise.
Participants go through their personalised report with a supportive coach and they work together (either one-on-one or in a supportive workshop environment) to reflect on those areas requiring attention and plan action accordingly. A number of programme options are available to suit client needs.

ORGANISATIONS - BUILDING TEAM ENGAGEMENT
CultureWise supports clients to build highly engaged teams and great cultures.
We enable your people to be heard via our suite of engagement surveys, support you to understand the drivers of engagement and take prompt action on what you learn. This builds emotional connection and commitment (engagement) among your team, which drives profitable growth.
Engagement is not rocket science. It's about doing a number of things well and consistently over time. We help you as a leader understand all of the drivers of engagement.

WHY IS ENGAGEMENT IMPORTANT?
All of our surveys are independent and you and your team can rest assured their feedback will be completely anonymous. This ensures that we hear it like it really is, which is exactly what is needed to understand what action is appropriate.
REVENUE
Companies with highly engaged staff have over twice the revenue of those with low engagement.
Engaged staff genuinely care more. They stay longer, are more productive, and provide incredible customer service.
All of these tangibly increase revenue and customer loyalty to your brand.
GROWTH
The best growth strategy in the world is useless unless your people buy in.
It's widely recognised that a highly engaged and performing workforce is essential for growth and survival.
It also increases innovation and productivity, both essential for ongoing business success.
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
It’s hard for competitors to copy engagement.
Companies can’t buy engaged staff - you earn their engagement by investing in them over time.
There's a huge opportunity to stand out from your competitors with staff who are motivated, emotionally connected and committed to your company and proud advocates of your brand.
HEALTH
Business leaders directly impact the wellbeing of not only staff but their partners and children too.
Most staff spend one third of their entire working lives at work.
You have a responsibility as a leader to focus on engagement.
Society as a whole benefits when more people are engaged at work.
SCHOOLS - BUILDING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Great schools value effective partnerships with parents / caregivers. A high level of community support positively impacts student attendance, attitude, behaviour, wellbeing, motivation to learn, academic results and social achievements.
We enable your community to be heard via our School Community Survey, produce a Community Survey Report for you and support you to act wisely on what you learn.
When schools, families and communities join forces to support and encourage learning and growth, our tamariki undoubtedly benefit.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:
PART OF THE NZ CURRICULUM
Community Engagement is one of the key principles in the NZ Curriculum.
It calls for schools and teachers to reflect the values and aspirations of parents and caregivers, provide meaningful, relevant connection to students' lives outside of school, and drive strong partnerships with families and communities to contribute to learning goals.
PARTNERSHIP:
STARTS WITH COMMUNICATION
The basis of any solid partnership is good communication.
Surveying parents and caregivers, enabling them to communicate with you and be heard is core to engaging your school community.
It is a starting point for conversations about what is important to your community and how you can work together to build a strong learning partnership.
ABOUT OUR SURVEY:
SUPPORT & TIMING
We provide a comprehensive, tried and tested online survey enabling your community to be heard in a constructive, anonymous and non-confrontational way.
Taking an average of only 10 minutes to complete, our survey is carefully designed to maximise participation and feedback quality.
Core survey reports are delivered within 5 working days of your survey closing.
Our experienced survey consultant will support you through the findings and help with communications back to your community.
ABOUT OUR SURVEY:
TOPICS COVERED
Your community can have their say about important aspects of their and their child’s/children’s experiences and perceptions of your school.
As well as an in-depth review of learning, communication and facilities & resources, the survey gathers feedback on a wide range of general topics: advocacy, child happiness, leadership, administration, staff, teaching standards, responsiveness, safety and security, diversity, cultural needs and behaviour management.

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
We’re constantly working hard to deliver a great service to our customers. But enough from us.
Here’s what some of our clients think about CultureWise...
SOPHIE GUNDESEN
Head of People & Culture, The Skin Institute
"We really enjoyed partnering with CultureWise for our last team engagement survey and look forward to doing so again.
Claire is great to work with and genuinely cares about our business. She is incredibly knowledgeable and really helped us to design a personalised survey to suit our needs.
Presentation of results back to our Exec team is always professional, well put together and clear.
The follow-up work interpreting data and the tools provided are very helpful and easy to use."
JO MASON
CEO - NZbrokers
"My team and I participated in the Wellbeing & Productivity Programme recently. It is good to get in a room, stop, and take stock of how you are progressing in your lifestyle habits and whether you are being your best self, or looking after yourself the best way you can.
From a professional perspective, it is important to me to have a team who are as productive as they can be. This is achieved through happy, healthy and engaged people enjoying what they do and feeling rewarded.
From a personal view, there isn't anything wrong with a few home truths delivered in a sensitive and confidential manner to make one sit up and re-evaluate! I know the team got as much out of it as I did, and I would recommend the investment in your teams. It pays for itself. Thanks Claire!"
HARLEY PROWSE
Director – GBS
"The (survey) analysis provided by Claire was excellent and gave us some positive insight as to how to further develop our vision.
As a result of the survey and Claire’s interpretation and analysis, GBS has embarked on a process … with staff to ensure they are, and want to be on board with our vision.
This will help our bottom line be affected in a positive manner, our staff are happier and more productive and we can attract the best staff … and keep our staff turnover as low as possible."
KERRY TOPP
Founder | Chief [Re]Generator
The Kerry Topp Collective
"As a sole business owner trying to be the best father and husband I can be and grow my business, it is a constant balancing act of being there for my family and customers whilst still looking after myself.
I engaged Claire because I was in danger of losing sight of what was important. I wanted to take stock, get clear on what I want and examine what I was doing that wasn't supporting me and what was.
I found the CultureWise Productivity & Wellbeing Survey and Claire's approach were awesome to help me get clarity on what I could do to ensure that I am not just productive, but that I am also well.
I thoroughly recommend Claire and her Productivity & Wellbeing Survey as a stocktake, a recalibration, a reset and the basis of a new way of living for any senior business leader seeking to be the best they can be.
SANDRA MU
Managing Director – JUMP
"Culture is a big part of what we do and how we deliver the JUMP experience. We noticed as the business started to grow more and more we felt that the connection with our team became increasingly difficult. This year it was at the top of our priority list to implement effective strategies to be able to reconnect with our now large team to help drive our business forward.
This is how I came across Claire at CultureWise.
Claire is amazing, she has taken the effort to understand our company’s needs and has helped us to get back on track through using the staff engagement survey as a key tool. Claire is passionate about the key questions that help us to retrieve the relevant information required to pinpoint where our focus is needed to get the best possible result."
ROBERT CHOVEAUX
Board of Trustees member - St. Clair Primary School
"Our BOT decided to go with Claire at CultureWise for our school survey after a recommendation from another group I have used before in an alliance contract setting.
Claire's expert advice helped us to get the most out of our survey and her insight into human behaviour with surveys really helped us to streamline what key questions we were trying to get answered by our community.
Her communication, professionalism and timeliness with the delivery of the report made it a pleasure to work with her.
Highly recommend CultureWise for any other schools who are wanting quality data from their survey."

Claire Day - Founder and Director
Everything we do, we do because we believe that if people are heard and understood then action can be taken to drive positive change, whether that be at a personal, team, company or community level. That is why the work we do always begins with surveys – with asking the right questions, supporting clients to learn from the insights and take appropriate action as a result.
My passion is to inspire people to be the best they can be. That may be …

-
at the community level with our Community Survey for schools, helping to build strong community partnerships between caregivers and educators, ultimately to enhance learning outcomes for our tamariki
With years of experience supporting a range of clients, I’ve learned that by asking the right questions, really listening to people and using insights to guide prompt action, people’s emotional connection and commitment to their company, school or even their own personal goals can skyrocket. I love what I do and am lucky to have such an amazing team who are all equally passionate about great client service.
