Culture is the “how” in business. The important question to ask when identifying and establishing a culture is not “What do we do?” but “How do we do it?” Because a healthy culture is vital to the success of any group, creation and development must be taken seriously. Without a clear understanding of purpose, mission, and vision, along with core values, the “what” in business won’t be sustainable.


Philosophy: We believe that our “how” is just as important as our “what”.


Perspective: Because of this belief, we see a healthy culture as a necessity.


Performance: As a result, we continually clarify and communicate corporate expectations and values internally.

The Tappe Group works with new organizations to establish and develop a strong culture that people want to be a part of and thrive in. We also help existing organizations repair damaged cultures, building on cultural strengths and removing cultural hindrances. Since an organization is made up of people, its culture should be reflective of its people. The purpose, mission, and vision of a company should be consistent with those of the people. If not, the “culture” will be no more than a well-constructed mission statement displayed on a wall. Therefore, we work with organizations to ensure the culture being built is one that will be owned and lived by the people involved.
