Workplace Culture is a tenant in B Corp’s list of performance requirements for companies, and a standard that is held high to ensure positive and ethical practices for all members of a corporation. Through extensive workplace dialogue and feedback, this B Corp standard requires companies to give concrete evidence of their methods of improving internal governance and workers’ experiences. B Corp places an emphasis on creating a “culture” within a workplace that considers key themes such as shared sense of purpose, satisfaction, well-being, and more.
In this spotlight, we are excited to delve more into one of our partners working in this space: Business Culture Consultants. Their team interacts with and assesses organizations to help them improve their workplace culture, ultimately leading to overall business success.

“To quote the famous management consultant Peter Drucker - ‘Culture eats strategy for breakfast.’ While the term culture is used a lot these days - often with different meanings - in my work over the last two decades it translates into the beliefs, assumptions, and patterns of how we actually work together,” said Flip Brown, CEO and Founder of Business Culture Consultants. “This includes how we identify and solve problems, having effective yet inclusive meetings, practicing creative conflict, and embracing equity, to name a few elements. Empowered cultures are ones in which the alignment around values, purpose, and mission serve all members of the organization, not just the owners or leaders. Changing it takes time, dedication, and - most importantly - vulnerability and courage.”
Our partnership with Business Culture Consultants shares the common value of constant, measurable improvement for businesses of all sizes. The B Corp Certification carefully considers the treatment of employees and culture, aligning Business Culture Consultants’ dedication to strategic change in the workplace. As our partnership continues, we are thrilled to see the aid that Business Culture Consultants will provide to organizations in improving their culture.
