Our Story
CulturAlchemy was formed to demystify and design culture with you. We enable organisations to understand the work of culture change, adopt simple methods and learn to use them to create lasting, self-sustaining shift.
We align organisational culture with strategy and purpose.
The founding Alchemists came together to meet a growing need for an approach to culture change that moved beyond diagnostic measurement to address its systemic, adaptive, nature in a simple, yet sophisticated manner. With culture presenting as a key theme of the Hayne Royal Commission, it became clear the challenges and deficiencies uncovered, were being experienced far beyond the financial sector. This further inspired our collaboration.
Alchemy itself is an ancient practice that blends science and wisdom to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. The forerunner of modern chemistry, this practice was about transformation and creation; combining the elements of nature with a questioning mind to discover answers to the many mysteries of life.
The magic created when combining natural elements is at the core of CulturAlchemy. We bring together multiple disciplines combining the science of research and measurement with contemporary tools and deep knowledge to help organisations make sense of culture which empowers them to co-create adaptive, sustainable, change that delivers results. A proven formula we call CulturAlchemy Gold.

Why it Matters
People carry the culture! – A thriving, adapting culture enables purpose, possibility and potential for people and communities to prosper.
We are co-adventurers in culture change. We have a deep knowledge and understanding of culture and what it takes to demystify & re-design it, but our point of difference as consultants is our preference for collaboration and thought partnership over simply providing “the answer”.
