The research

Culture isn't a feeling. It's five measurable drivers.

HR Coach has researched the culture drivers of Australasian SMEs since 2003. The data consistently shows the same pattern: workplace culture trends above management culture, because some teams work well despite their managers, but great team results only exist when there are great managers.
