Transform Your Corporate Culture with Data-Driven Assessments

Measure, Align, and Strengthen Your Workplace Culture for Lasting Results

Your company’s culture isn’t just an abstract concept—it directly drives employee engagement, leadership effectiveness, and business performance. John Mattone–the world’s #1 executive coach (Globalgurus.org, 2019-2025) and global expert on culture (Cultural Transformations – Wiley, 2016) and John Mattone Global (JMG), one of the world’s top 10 leadership development firms—has discovered a critical mistake made by most organizations: most measure their employee engagement; however, very few measure their culture. Yet, it is culture that drives engagement.

At John Mattone Global (JMG), we provide research-backed corporate culture assessments that help leaders:

  • Identify cultural strengths
  • Uncover hidden gaps
  • Implement targeted improvements for long-term success

The Critical Business Need for Culture Assessment

As detailed in John Mattone’s bestselling book Cultural Transformations, senior executive teams must recognize that assessing an organization’s culture and its components are the true “leading indicators” that drive sustained operating success.

Without clear metrics and insights, culture remains abstract—leading to:

  • Leadership misalignment and inconsistency
  • Declining employee engagement and high turnover
  • Resistance to organizational change
  • Diminished innovation and creativity

JMG’s proprietary culture assessment tools provide leaders with the clarity and structure needed to evaluate, enhance, and sustain a thriving workplace culture.

The Cultural Transformation Readiness Assessment-40 (CTRA-40)®

The 6 Critical Steps outline how you can successfully navigate cultural transformation and build a high-performance organization.

For organizations preparing for large-scale transformation, the CTRA-40 provides a structured approach to evaluating readiness and leadership alignment. This assessment measures your organization’s readiness to successfully change and transform its culture based on our 6 Steps of Culture Transformation.

This assessment is completed by each member of the senior executive team prior to our 3-Day Cultural Transformation “Bootcamp” to capture where they perceive their organization’s cultural transformation readiness to be strong and lacking prior to launching a change or transformation initiative.

What the CTRA-40 Measures:

The assessment evaluates 40 items across 6 Cultural Change Readiness Predictors:

CTRA-40 Report frame in tablets
  • The Imperative to Transform – Is the need for change recognized?
  • Leadership Commitment – Are leaders aligned on cultural transformation goals?
  • Creating a Compelling Future – How clear is the company’s long-term cultural direction?
  • Changing Mindsets & Behaviors – Are employees prepared for change?
  • Pushing “Talent Levers” – Are employees equipped to grow within the evolving culture?
  • Measure & Course Correct – Can the organization track progress effectively?

This assessment is completed by senior executives before our 3-Day Cultural Transformation “Bootcamp,” ensuring an honest, data-driven foundation for effective change. Many executives overestimate their organization’s readiness for transformation—the CTRA-40 provides objective clarity.

Key Differences: JMG’s Assessments vs. Standard Engagement Surveys

Many organizations rely on basic employee engagement surveys to gauge culture, but these tools only scratch the surface. JMG’s proprietary assessments provide deeper, more actionable analysis than standard engagement surveys:

Organizations that invest in JMG’s culture assessments gain a competitive edge—enabling targeted cultural interventions that drive business success.

How Our Culture Assessment Process Works

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Culture Diagnosis

  • Assess your organization’s specific culture challenges and transformation goals
  • Culture surveys play a crucial role in identifying strengths and weaknesses within the work environment, ultimately linking a positive company culture to improved employee engagement and productivity.
  • Determine whether the 5CCA, CTRA-40, or a combination of both is the best fit

Step 2: Administer & Analyze the Assessment

  • Deploy the assessment to your selected employee population
  • Generate detailed culture reports with actionable insights for improvement

Step 3: Leadership Strategy & Implementation

  • Conduct C-level retreats and executive debrief sessions (virtual or onsite) to review assessment results and begin creating the architecture and key priorities for cultural change.
  • Develop a custom roadmap for cultural transformation aligned with business objectives

Step 4: Ongoing Culture Optimization & Leadership Coaching for a Healthy Organizational Culture

  • Implement executive coaching and leadership training to reinforce culture alignment
  • Measure progress through follow-up assessments to track cultural improvements
  • Engage with feedback through culture surveys to create a healthy company culture where employees feel valued and can thrive

The JMG Culture Transformation Methodology

John Mattone’s approach to culture transformation goes beyond assessment to create sustainable change. Our methodology is built on six essential pillars that guide organizations through every phase of cultural development:

1. Building Transformation Urgency

We help leaders articulate a compelling case for change by connecting cultural transformation to business outcomes. This establishes the “burning platform” that mobilizes commitment at all levels.

2. Developing Leadership Alignment

Culture transformation begins at the top. We ensure executive teams model the mindsets and behaviors that define your target culture, creating the consistency needed for organization-wide adoption.

3. Creating a Compelling Future Vision

Our process helps leadership teams craft a vivid, inspiring vision of the desired culture that resonates emotionally with employees while supporting strategic objectives.

4. Shifting Mindsets Before Behaviors

Sustainable transformation requires addressing underlying beliefs before changing behaviors. Our approach targets the deep cognitive frameworks that drive actions and decisions.

5. Activating Talent Development Levers

We help organizations identify and deploy the specific talent development initiatives that will accelerate culture transformation and build capability for the future.

6. Implementing Measurement Systems

Our methodology includes establishing ongoing metrics and feedback loops that track cultural progression and enable timely course corrections.

Each element of this methodology is customized to your organization’s unique cultural context, creating a transformation approach that delivers measurable, lasting results.
