ORGANIZATION CONCEPT
Cortisol Management
How happy people are at work decides how productive the organisation is. Cortisol, a physiological measure, lets us raise both at once. This is the new standard in human capital management that we practise ourselves and offer to our clients.

CONCEPT
Putting the organisation right, with science.
Cortisol is the hormone the body releases in response to stress. Too much and too little both cost performance. At the right level, people show their sharpest focus and their best judgement.
Cortisol Management builds organisations around tuning that hormone rather than suppressing it. By keeping an environment where each person can perform at their best, grounded in physiology, we lead both the individual and the organisation to growth that lasts.
EFFECTS
Three changes it brings to an organisation
Decisions change
Decisions made with your back against the wall narrow the field of view. When stress is in balance, the quality and the speed of decisions change, in the boardroom and on the ground.
Ideas appear
New ideas come from having room to breathe. We build organisations where trying something is no longer a frightening thing to do.
The organisation lasts
An organisation that does not run on sheer endurance keeps going. We reduce turnover and leaves of absence, and put the foundations for growth in place.
APPROACH
Measure, tune, raise.
STEP 01
Measure
We make stress levels and the condition of the organisation visible through surveys and other means, and pinpoint where the issues sit.
STEP 02
Tune
We redesign how work is structured, how people are managed and what the workplace is like, on what physiology tells us.
STEP 03
Raise
Continuous monitoring and improvement lift the performance of individuals and of the organisation, and keep it there.
