Esprit Global Culture Values
Cultural Values Roll Out
Design and roll-out cultural values globally with an interactive and memorable workshop.
KD Involvement:
Project Owner:
In order to connect our many nationalities and geographies, while undergoing a major change transformation, we used our culture values to anchor employees under a common context and vision of what it means to be Esprit.
Scope & Process:
To do this, I was project owner for establishing Cultural Values (including research, scope, and selection). Once established and approved through C-Suite and Works Council, I was tasked to design the workshop experience and collaborate on roll out design for both offices and stores.

Workshop Concept: For this concept, I was inspired by an art exhibit I saw in Havana at the Art Biennial, which centered on how individual values contribute to society's collective values. This was converted into a participatory workshop, where colleagues identify personal and corporate values, built structures to represent the current values and what the future should look like.  Engagement was high due to the participatory nature of the workshop and colleagues where happy to see that globally, our company values were similar across cultures, geographies and languages.  This was successfully rolled out across all offices with results shared globally.

Outcome & Impact:
This workshop was carried out across all EMEA and APAC offices and with great reviews.  It's been used numerous times for team building events and on-boarding. Colleagues feel a stronger cohesion and reference our values when making business decisions.
