Meet Change with Purpose.
The Culture Patterns Project uses data and assessment to help social change organizations map where they are, where they can be, and how to get there intentionally.
Ready for Change.
Mapping organizational culture is one of the most powerful ways to prepare for change. Yet the tools for doing so are dominated by a corporate mindset.
That’s why we developed The Culture Patterns Framework.
The Framework offers a holistic way of understanding how social change organizations shift in and out of different culture patterns—varying in how much they focus on each of 4 value orientations: Connection, Movement, Grounding, and Purpose.

We Exist for Social Change
Many social change organizations work to reflect their values inward and beyond. But most do so without access to science-backed tools and frameworks specific to their unique organizational cultures.
The Culture Patterns Project was built to bridge the gap. Our framework is specific to social change organizations, and our assessments founded on the same values. Our approach is uniquely crafted to help your organization meet change with purpose.
