Preventing inappropriate behavior is simple but not easy. To stop mind-reading and start talking with each other, you first need to know where the barriers are. We map this out through research.
Culture Assessment
A culture assessment is always tailored to the organization but can include:
-
Qualitative interviews with employees
-
Access to reports filed with the confidential counselor
-
Diversity data of the employees
-
Perceived inclusivity among employees
-
Communication style within the organization
Structure Assessment
The structure assessment examines the systems related to social safety and their execution. This includes:
-
The code of conduct
-
The complaint-handling procedure
-
Resolution of previous complaints
-
Composition of the decision-making body
Results
Through qualitative interviews, observations, and structural research, we investigate the following questions. Which factors are most frequently mentioned as barriers to addressing issues? Do employees know about the code of conduct, the complaints procedure, and the confidential counselor? Do they understand what boundary-crossing behavior and power dynamics entail?
​
Based on the answers, we determine whether there is a culture of concern, fear, avoidance, or accountability. We assess the knowledge and skills levels of employees and managers and tailor the organizational training and consultancy accordingly.
Wanneer is onderzoek nodig?

√ Als er nog geen onderzoek gedaan is
√ Als startpunt voor het maken van beleid
√ Als er een meldingonderzoek is gedaan en er een vraag ligt of dit deel uitmaakt van de cultuur
√ Als input voor het bijstellen of evalueren van beleid
√ Als er weinig of geen meldingen via de vertrouwenspersoon binnenkomen
