AVEC

Most organizations don’t fight the competition, but themselves.

Miscommunication, inefficient meetings, low productivity, little engagement, burn-outs, attracting and retaining talent, lack of safety, fear and stress. Work is not working.

Though often tackled separately, these challenges share common roots. They are interconnected, vital to business, and the outcome of your organizational culture.

For us, culture is not your office's tennis table, nor your values written on a poster on the wall. It is tangible human behavior. It is feeling safe, being honest, taking responsibility and having empathy. Enabling people to do their best work.

AVEC makes working together work by creating human-centered cultures. Ready to dive deeper?

Challenge

Start-up SPARK needed a new and human remuneration strategy.

Process

Salaries are taboo: Employees don't talk about it but find it important. It determines their value. That's why we interviewed all employees and opened up salaries. After this, we facilitated multiple management- and company-wide sessions to define what remuneration fits an impact start-up like SPARK.

Result

A thorough benchmark of every employee's salary, a remuneration structure and a strategy with quick-wins and long-term goals. All while involving everyone so the strategy is supported by the whole organization there's mutual trust between colleagues making them feel valued. In collaboration with Emaho.

Challenge

DGTL Festival developed a new brand strategy. How to realize it?

Process

A new strategy creates personal anxieties that, if not shared, withhold us from doing the change necessary. Through multiple sessions, we created space to ask questions, share concerns and fears. Afterward, we translated the strategy into concrete projects with a detailed plan of who needs to do what, when, to make it reality.

Result

From concept to concrete projects, clear outcomes and tangible behavior: Employees now own the strategy. But more important, they connected with each other on a human level, which increased trust and motivated them to do the work together.

Challenge

Graydon needed to become a responsive organization.

Process

We set up cross-functional teams in the organization and started to build trust and align expectations. For six months, we coached weekly meetings and ran team-dynamics sessions to make members work better together. More than structure, self-organizing is about changing behavior: learning how to work with roles and responsibilities instead of titles, give and receive feedback, and reflect.

Result

Past quarters, the teams had the highest revenue of the whole organization. Moreover, engagement was high because they work based on trust and transparency.In collaboration with OrganizationBuilders
