Description

In this episode of What’s the DEIL?, Natalie and Shanté are pulling back the curtain on one of the most overlooked but essential tools in your leadership toolbox: the workplace culture assessment.

Think employee engagement surveys are enough? Think again. The workplace and the world have shifted dramatically. What worked in 2019 won’t cut it in 2025. Your culture assessment can’t just be a box you check; it has to be a mirror reflecting your employees’ lived realities, otherwise, what’s the point?

In this episode, we cover:

Plus: A sealed envelope story you won’t believe, the dangers of survey overload, and what makes someone truly qualified to lead people.

Natalie and Shanté also walk through a clear, practical assessment process, from design to analysis to (you guessed it) actually doing something with the data, and why most companies fall short in the final stretch.

Key takeaway? If your employees don’t feel heard, valued, or supported, you’re not just missing the mark on DEI, you’re leaving real business outcomes on the table. And no, you can’t fix it with a gold star or a ranking badge.

Want to know where your culture really stands? Start by asking and be ready to listen, learn, and lead differently.
