REIMAGINING the role of work in social impact

CALL FOR CULTURE IS A COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE DRIVING BOLD CHANGE BY RAISING THE BAR ON THE ROLE OF WORK CULTURE IN POSITIVELY IMPACTING PEOPLE AND SOCIETY.

.

  • COMMUNITY

    The Call for Culture Community of Practice mobilizes our collective strength to build a better world and better world of work through community leadership and culture building. It is designed to unite and be a space for social impact leaders (industry and sector agnostic) called to reimagine the role of work in society - advancing collective liberation, connecting to our shared humanity, and progressing a more equitable and just future for all. Joining our community means leading change with community while connecting and growing our impact, together.

  • CONFERENCE

    Attending a live event within our community is a great way to connect, learn, and engage other culture changemakers. Our events for our community members range from timely webinars and workshops focused on topics intersecting work and social impact to informal social gatherings. Our cornerstone event and conference (the Culture Impact Lab) is open to all and is held annually each Spring in Chicago and aims to bring together and mobilize our community of practice. It is a thoughtful convening that offers an experiential and action learning space with a call to action to imagine more and different.

  • CONSULTING

    We are at the forefront of building modern, change-ready organizations and communities that adapt and contribute to societal progress versus react and detract from it. Working with us means that you're working with partners at the forefront of strategic workplace culture consulting. Our approach is forward-thinking, research-based, and cross-disciplinary. We specialize in building and changing cultures that have positive outcomes for people, profit, and planet. Our researched methodology (Call for Culture Method) centers both organizational outcomes and community/your workforce.

We’ve been duped about what work should be. 

It’s time to challenge traditional workplace culture that separates the human from the work.

Organizations are grappling with rapid changes in workplace requirements, largely due to an outdated approach that overlooks the importance of the role work has on culture and societal change. As society evolves and generations change, so do the experiences, expectations, and behaviors reflected in our workplaces.

IF IT’S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD, IT’S HAPPENING AT WORK.

The Role of Workplace Culture is Changing

The workplace, a microcosm of society, is on the brink of the most significant transformation since the industrial revolution. The societal norms, paradigms, and systems that dominate our world do not vanish when employees “clock in”; instead, they are forces continually shaping the work environment.

Through a commitment to social responsibility, companies can cultivate ecosystems where they are actively contribute to a broader societal betterment. By empowering a workforce that returns home fulfilled and poised to affect positive change within their communities, businesses can anticipate heightened performance and exponential impact.

 The Best Workplaces of 2030 aren’t just offering perks — they’re changing minds and hearts about what work means, and challenging tired leadership paradigms. This shift requires moving beyond the latest HR or business trend to adopt a more expansive, outward-looking approach that considers both internal and external human dynamics. It’s time to think like futurists, anticipating rather than reacting to the forces that will impact the future of work.

By stepping outside of the traditional boundaries of HR, we take an actionable, multidisciplinary approach (The Call for Culture Method®) to help you future proof your organization and transform it into a human-centered workplace that creates social impact.

The Call for Culture Method® is a multidisciplinary approach to align, mobilize, and transform organizations into human-centered workplaces that create social impact. It stands on a foundation of research-supported best practices and the most cutting-edge theories from field leaders and is the foundation for our work with organizations and culture change leaders.
