Service 01 — Overview
Culture Transformation
That Actually Sticks
Culture transformation is the most ambitious and most frequently failed organisational intervention. It fails not because organisations lack commitment, but because most approaches misunderstand what culture is and what is required to change it.
Our approach is built on the only evidence base that works: culture changes when leaders change — and only when repeated measurement proves it has.

We Measure
Organisation-Wide Climate
WPSQ, PSC-12, and qualitative consultation — producing a quantified culture baseline, not qualitative impression.
We Shift
Leader Mindsets at Scale
Because culture changes when leaders change. Cohort programs plus coaching for the top team.
We Embed
Structural Reinforcement
New norms wired into hiring, performance, and promotion criteria — not left to willpower alone.
You Gain
Verified Culture Change
Repeat measurement every quarter, closing with a board-ready 12-month impact report.
This Is Right For You If…
You Recognise These Situations
You lead a team and feel culture isn’t what you intended it to be
You’re facing elevated psychosocial risk or regulatory scrutiny
Standard leadership training hasn’t produced lasting change
You want data — not anecdote — to demonstrate culture improvement
You’re scaling rapidly and need culture to keep pace with growth
Post-merger or restructure — you need coherence from disparate parts
Who It's For
Right For You If & Works Best When
Leadership and culture work is a serious undertaking. It delivers for organisations with genuine readiness — not just appetite.
Our Approach
A Measurement-Led Five-Step Method
All engagements begin with rigorous measurement and close with a formal impact report — defensible, data-driven evidence of what shifted, formatted for your board or regulator.
Step 1
Diagnostic & Baseline Measurement
Validated psychometrics — WPSQ, Leadership Mindset Inventory, and 360° behavioural assessments. Replaces assumption with data from day one.
Step 2
Individual Debrief & Insight
Each leader receives a personalised debrief with a qualified organisational psychologist — creating the moment of genuine insight that makes change feel necessary, not just possible.
Step 3
Cohort-Based Development
Group workshops translating individual insight into shared language and collective practice — psychological safety, cognitive flexibility, constructive conflict, culture-shaping behaviours.
Assessment Instruments
The Tools Behind
Every Engagement
The full organisational culture suite — quantitative instruments and qualitative methods combined for a defensible, data-led picture.
Culture & Effectiveness
Human Synergistics OCI/OEI
An enterprise-wide culture and effectiveness assessment measuring shared behavioural norms and underlying organisational systems to diagnose cultural styles and their impact on performance.
Service Styles
Human Synergistics Customer Service Styles (CSS)
A behavioural assessment measuring service-oriented thinking and interaction styles, highlighting how individuals approach customer relationships and service effectiveness.
Psychosocial Safety
WPSQ — Workplace Psychosocial Safety Questionnaire
Our proprietary 34-item instrument across four evidence-based domains — the quantitative foundation of every culture engagement.
Qualitative
Structured Focus Group Consultation
Facilitated qualitative data collection with representative cohorts — contextualising and challenging the psychometric findings.
Analysis
Qualitative & Thematic Analysis
Rigorous thematic analysis of qualitative data from focus groups, interviews, and open-text responses — identifying patterns and insights beyond numbers.

Steve Thomson
Senior Consultant – Capability and Program Delivery
Damien was terrific; he handled the large group really well and was able to adjust to things that arose during the sessions, in terms of meeting the diverse needs of the group. Really great and we appreciate the introduction to him!
John Doe
CAHS Child Adolescent Health Services WA Govt
I really enjoyed the content on personal values, the worksheet resources and diagrams, as well as the presentation style today.
I’d absolutely be keen for any other sessions that are presented by Damian / The Science of Happiness and Success in future.
Judy Slatyer
Chair, Sustainability, ESG, AI
April 1, 2021, Judy was senior to Damian but didn’t manage Damian directly
Damian and I worked together at Australian Red Cross. He was a great coach to me, the leadership team and the Board on our role in leading and role modelling a constructive and performance-oriented culture. A great listener, Damian was also good at holding up the mirror to me in a way which helped me see what I didn’t see and change as a result. Professional, thoughtful and of the highest integrity are the three attributes which come to mind when I think of Damian.
