Participant Feedback
Jonny Friedman
CPO, Fiecon
It starts with yourself. Your behaviours are the signals people copy. These tools have helped me shape the culture across five merging organisations — one small behaviour at a time.
Sarah Jallow
Interim CPO
Quick wins and small experiments are what get things moving. The Accelerator has given me practical ways to diagnose culture fast and create momentum in every organisation I join.
Most culture work fails because it...
-
Isn’t clearly linked to business outcomes
-
Feels too complex and ambiguous
-
Lives in values, not every day behaviour
-
Is seen as a side note to business strategy
-
Loses momentum when priorities shift
The result? Culture creates friction, not fuel.
The Accelerator works because it...
✔ Starts with business value, not values
✔ Translates culture into observable behaviours
✔ Builds executive-ready narratives
✔ Creates ownership beyond HR
✔ Delivers an actionable plan
You don’t just learn about culture. You build an engine to fuel sustainable growth.
