Exploring TLC Cultures
Factor analytic research by Perception Mapping, using 8.5 million data points, has identified five Crucial Culture Dimensions (CCD’s) driving high performing workplaces. The dimensions form the TLC Culture Check, which is designed to help organisations measure and compare their culture on a continuous basis.
The five CCD’s track and rapidly identify how well a work culture is operating. In high performance workplaces, staff always feel they are being treated well, they are constantly involved in the decisions that affect their work, they feel empowered and capable of self-managing their daily tasks, have a great relationship with their direct manager and work in a psychologically safe environment where they are skilled and encouraged to speak up, no matter how sensitive or tough the issue.

The 5 Crucial Culture Dimensions
1. Treatment
Experience shows the most critical psychological factor in a person’s performance is how well they feel they are being treated by their managers and co-workers. Treat people well and they will happily contribute their best efforts to building organisational success. Treat them badly and they will sabotage at every opportunity.
2. Engagement
People come to work for money but engage and perform based on how well their ideas, skills and personal efforts are valued by their organisation. Most critically, people perform best when they are involved in all the decisions that affect their daily work. It gives them a sense of ownership, responsibility and accountability.
3. Empowerment
The feelings of freedom and autonomy are some of the greatest human motivators. Independence of thought and action provide the energy to perform at a high level for long periods. Over-managed and over-supervised staff rarely perform well for any length of time.
4. Leadership
Only the top one or two percent of companies operate with fully self-managed workforces. Most others operate with hierarchies that generally impede performance. The better hierarchies have managers, with great relationship skills, and the ability to coach and develop the people they supervise.
5. Communication
Years of VitalSmarts Inc. research shows most people go to silence when confronted with the need to discuss tough and emotionally charged issues. But, in the very open and transparent communication environments, of the best performing organisations, every worker is skilled and encouraged to speak up on every issue.
