The term organizational culture has various meanings. Most often it is defined as a wholesome system of norms, values, visions, beliefs and symbols that determine the way of behaving and reacting to problems and make up the image of the company. It represents an invisible force affecting the individual within the organization.
The reasons why organizational culture is considered so important are the following:
- It affects the way problems are perceived, analyzed and solved
- It affects the quality and quantity of innovations
- It affects how the organization reacts to changes and uncertainty
- It affects the motivation of the employees
The effects of the culture can be positive as well as negative.Therefore it is crucial for the company to be aware of its culture and its advantages and disadvantages as well as of the fact that every change is reflected in every area of the culture.

Coaching is an everyday practice in successful organizations and is intended for the leaders as well as employees who wish to make use of all their potentials in pursuance of optimal business and personal results. Coaching is basically an interactive process in which thought processes are triggered by means of special methods. This helps individuals and companies reach their goals more quickly and efficiently.
A good starting point for coaching is evaluating the managers and their managerial skills. Coaching defines the areas and skills in need of improvement by analyzing actual situations in the work environment. The main purpose of such training is to remove the obstacles on the way to the goals and help the individual to optimally use his/her potentials, even the ones he/she was not aware of before.

Employee engagement is defined by three categories:
- Engaged employees are the ones who work passionately, feel a deep connection with the company, are a source of innovation and contribute to the development of the company
- Disengaged employees are partially absent, do only what is necessary, are half asleep at work, put their time into their work but lack energy and passion
- The actively disengaged employees are not just unsatisfied in their job but show their unhappiness actively. They openly underestimate the work of their engaged colleges and are a bad influence on the engagement and satisfaction of the clients, business partners, etc.
People do not wish to be disengaged. They want to lead full, productive, successful and happy lives. Most of the employees are highly engaged when they fill a position, but the important question is how to maintain the engagement in the future.
So it is important to know how engaged our employees are.

Where employers have reason to believe that some workers may be engaging in discriminatory, unsafe or culpable conduct, conducting an investigation to determine what has occurred and who is responsible may be necessary. Such investigations are often more pressing where there are allegations of workplace violence or harassment; or discrimination.
Because of the sensitivities of such issues and the strong emotions that are commonly involved, it is prudent to enlist the services of an objective third party investigator to inquire into the legitimacy of the complaints as well as the nature and scope of any underlying issues.
Our team is routinely enlisted to conduct such workplace investigations. We are well aware of the additional, and sometimes conflicting, considerations that can and do arise.
Utilizing a third party investigator provides the necessary assurance that there can be no basis for a potential legal issue that the employer failed to perform an adequate investigation. The person conducting the investigation should be trained on how to properly and thoroughly conduct the investigation in a way that is “neutral,” or not seen as having a stake in the outcome of the investigation.
