CADi · Organisational alignment
Do your incentives work against your values?
Examine how structures, incentives and management decisions align with your stated values, and what the gaps mean for the organisation.
Bring us a problem, a suspected opportunity or a result that does not add up. We can explore how CADi Culture could help, starting with your question and the evidence available.
Get in touchAn organisation promises good customer service, then rewards short calls. It promises careful judgement, then measures only throughput. People respond to the incentives around them, and apparently strong results can hide a widening gap between stated values and everyday decisions.
CADi Culture examines that gap at the organisational level: the structures, incentives and management choices shaping performance. The question is what the organisation should change about itself.
CADi Culture examines decisions against your stated purpose, behaviours and values. It investigates where they align, where they diverge and which organisational influences could explain the difference.
The analysis gives leaders a view across the system, with evidence and explicit assumptions behind the findings. It supports changes to structures, incentives and management; it is not a score or verdict on individuals.
Examine whether everyday choices support the commitments the organisation makes.
See where targets, incentives and management practices may be working against the intended outcome.
Investigate what divergence means for performance and customers, including effects hidden by aggregate metrics.
Give the board findings it can examine and a basis for deciding which organisational changes to test.
Directors accountable for culture who want evidence that decisions track stated purpose and values, not a survey or a statement of intent.
The teams that must demonstrate stated culture is applied in practice, at decision level, and account for where it diverges.
We work with you to define the organisational question, map the relevant influences and examine the evidence. Causal comparisons use a declared model, with assumptions and uncertainty stated.
The result supports decisions about the organisation itself. Leaders retain responsibility for its values and any changes to structures, incentives or management.
CADi is in production - its engines are live in the cloud - with nine UK patent applications pending. CADi Culture evidences alignment between decisions and stated values; it does not itself set the culture, and it is not a verdict on individuals.
Causal analysis runs on a declared model of the decision environment. Its conclusions depend on that model, the available evidence and explicit assumptions; estimates are analytical approximations. The engine has been tested against injected, synthetic and real ingested data. Live-outcome validation is completed against each client's own outcomes during deployment.
