Okuyigai helps organisations to uncover and close their culture gaps to improve employee work experience.

Okuyigai Approach

Industry Problem

Companies invest heavily in curating their external image through branding, but their internal culture often forms through unwritten norms that leadership may not recognise. The disconnect between leadership’s vision and employees’ reality creates a culture gap. Without tools to measure and bridge this gap, organisations risk low ROI of new tools and strategies, high turnover, disengagement, and reputational risk.

Okuyigai Solution

Okuyigai offers a culture intelligence process that maps and analyses an organisation’s real workplace culture, the lived experience rather than just policies. We identify cultural misalignments through targeted assessments and analysis, then provide clear, data-driven insights into where gaps exist. Finally, we offer tailored actionable recommendations that you can choose to implement yourself or partner with us for ongoing support.

The Culture Gap

Unseen culture gaps can cost you more than you think.

Culture isn't just what you say, it's what people experience. When the gap between your intentions and daily reality grows, it quietly erodes engagement, productivity, and trust.

Stop Unseen Gaps from Draining Your Potential.

Cultural misalignment doesn't just damage strategy; it prevents your people from using their critical human skills. Okuyigai introduces the 3-Phase Alignment Diagnostic to fix this, using data to precisely map the gap between strategy and reality, and delivering an implementation roadmap that ensures your team is fully aligned and empowered to drive your organisation's mission.

Why is alignment important?

For leaders & employers

You manage strategy. You manage risk.

You understand that you are the primary architect of your organisation's culture, whether through intention or inaction. Yet, you are often relying on assumptions rather than data.

Unseen culture gaps directly compromise your objectives by causing:

* Inefficient Strategy Implementation: Leadership is aligned, but ground-level staff priorities are misdirected.

* Wasted Investment: Resources dedicated to training or technology (like AI) are misapplied because the underlying need is misunderstood.

* Broken Feedback Loops: Inability to accurately determine cultural strengths and weaknesses, leading to poor and reactive decision-making.

Okuyigai provides the mirror to clearly reflect those hidden misalignments, transforming risk into an actionable strategy.

For staff & employees

Your Voice Matters. Your Experience Counts.

Your day-to-day reality defines the success of the entire organisation. But when your organisation’s culture fails, it's you who pays the price in energy and effort.

Unseen culture gaps prevent you from thriving by causing:

* Disengagement & Burnout: Feeling unheard, undervalued, and lacking essential support for growth.

* Low Productivity & Office Strife: Poor coordination and unclear processes make work harder, leading to friction and unnecessary stress.

* Suppressed Potential: Your critical thinking, creativity, and unique human skills are ignored, leading to feelings of being replaceable.

Okuyigai ensures your daily experience, growth needs, and valuable insights are fully reflected in the organisation's strategic priorities.
