Our mission

 To transform culture from an overlooked risk into a strategic asset that fuels measurable business results.
We help organizations define, communicate, and embed the cultural behaviors that directly feed their Performance Drivers — ensuring that every leader, team, and process is aligned with the mission, vision, and goals. 

By making culture measurable and actionable, we prevent misaligned behaviors from turning potential drivers into costly blockers. 

Our only goal is to help organizations and the people that believe in them to be successful; on your terms.

The problem:

 In the AI era, adaptability isn’t optional. Yet most organizations approach it as a project add-on, not a built-in capability. The result? Slow responses, missed opportunities, and rising risk. 

Who is culture xi?

Who We Are

How We Do It

Who We Are

Culture XI was founded by Jonathan Stanton after 15+ years leading transformations across 26 countries, 5 global M&As, and hundreds of leadership programs. 


He saw the same pattern everywhere: strategy failed when culture wasn’t aligned.


Culture XI exists to close that gap — helping organizations turn culture from an overlooked risk into a measurable performance advantage.

What We Do

How We Do It

Who We Are

We map culture to outcomes — translating abstract values into daily behaviors that drive (or derail) execution.


Our work focuses on:

  • Pinpointing critical behaviors that make or break performance.
  • Building leadership roadmaps with playbooks for decision-making, feedback, and execution.
  • Upgrading cultural systems so tech, processes, and people changes actually stick.
     

Our Six Systems of Culture framework ensures adaptability isn’t left to chance — it’s designed in.

How We Do It

How We Do It

How We Do It

We don’t guess. We diagnose.

We start by scanning the Six Systems of Culture in your organization to identify the 2–3 leaks costing you the most in alignment, decision-making, and adaptability. 


Then, we implement targeted fixes that deliver visible results within 90 days.


And if you don’t see measurable progress, we recalibrate at no cost.


Because culture should always drive performance — not excuses.

Six Systems Overview

 When culture is ignored, deals fail — fast.
In this real-world example, a seemingly simple acquisition collapsed into a nightmare of missed deadlines, stalled integration, and costly talent loss. The strategy was sound, but the cultural systems were misaligned — wiping out synergy value within months.

Why read it: To understand how avoidable cultural risks can destroy even the most promising strategies — and what you can do differently.

 Turn culture into your competitive advantage.
At Culture XI, we don’t just diagnose cultural risks — we partner with leaders to convert them into drivers of performance. From pre-merger culture audits to leadership alignment sprints, we help organizations embed behaviors that fuel decision-making, adaptability, and execution.

Why it matters: Where others see culture as “soft,” we make it measurable, actionable, and tied directly to business outcomes.

 We evaluate how your current culture is influencing performance — accelerating or sabotaging results. 


Using the Six Systems model and Burke-Litwin diagnostics, we uncover root causes of misalignment and highlight cultural risks, whether in daily operations or during M&A. 


This insight provides a roadmap to turn culture from a liability into a competitive advantage. 

Change & Integration Management

Cultural Diagnostics & Risk Analysis

Cultural Diagnostics & Risk Analysis

 From enterprise system rollouts to global acquisitions, we help leaders manage the people side of change at the root level, not the project level. 


Our approach integrates stakeholder analysis, tailored communications, behavioral sprints, and dashboards that track integration progress. 


The result: a transparent, aligned transformation process where culture fuels adoption instead of fighting it. 

Leadership Development & Alignment
