You already know something is amiss in your workplace.
Your intuition is telling you that something feels "off", that voice in your head is getting louder, and that knot in the pit of your stomach is only getting tighter.
I don't need to explain to you that conducting a workplace assessment is the best way to unearth the root causes of tensions before they turn into conflicts. It’s the difference between doing the “right thing” vs. the “easy thing” (i.e. doing nothing and hoping that the situation will magically disappear on its own).
Spoiler alert: It won’t.
You also know that the "easy thing" gets very tough, very fast - and it's almost always preventable if addressed early before it has a chance to escalate.
You also know that a workplace assessment isn't just for when tensions are already present - that it can be a tool to help you to build, strengthen, and honour trust and transparency, improve company culture, and lead to results like lower turnover, higher engagement, increased productivity, and increased employee happiness at work.
You're reading this page because you already get it.
You're ready to conduct a workplace assessment so you can...
-
Identify sources of tension or conflict within the workplace
-
Make informed decisions at all levels of the organization
-
Pinpoint areas where your organization excels and areas that need improvement
-
Diagnose the overall health of your work environment, including culture, processes, and practices
-
Uncover any underlying issues or concerns that may be impacting psychological safety, productivity, and employee happiness at work
You just aren't sure HOW to do it
And what you've read online has your eyes crossing
There are so many moving parts to a workplace assessment, it can quickly become overwhelming, and it’s easy to feel unsure of how to move forward.
You can find information online (sooo much information!), but it’s one thing to know what to do… and another to know how to do it so you’re not spinning your wheels instead of collecting valuable insights.
But you know what?
Workplace assessments don’t have to be overwhelming, confusing or complicated!
You just need the tools and templates to walk you through a proven process,
which will give you the confidence to move with purpose and drive meaningful change.
Hi, I'm Saira
(pronounced "sy-rah")
I’m an independent licensed workplace investigator with 25 years of HR experience and 150+ investigations and 50+ assessments under my belt dealing with issues related to discrimination, harassment, violence, misconduct, and toxic work environments. And I’ve seen how handling these issues early, and with care, can transform the work environment for the better (even when there were breaches of trust in the past).
I take pride in my values-driven approach to conducting workplace assessments…and the results speak for themselves.
Thank you for the time, effort, diligence, and care that you invested in this workplace assessment.
I heard from many participants that they felt seen, heard, and understood by you, that you worked hard to build genuine trust with them, and that they believed that meaningful change would come from this process because you were leading it.
Your report was thoughtful and thorough, and your recommendations were clear, considered, and provided a clear roadmap for the future.
In the work that I do, value alignment is critical.
I partner with clients who are committed to doing the work (and hard things), taking meaningful actions,
and making intentional changes to improve the workplace and the work culture.
Because nothing changes if nothing changes.
My approach to workplace assessments is robust, reliable, and repeatable.
Now I’m sharing the same system that I developed for my own practice - one that simplifies the process,
and fosters trust and safety while paving a clear path forward.
So, I’d like to introduce you to…
