Our story

“What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

If our 25 years observing organisations at work has taught us anything, it’s this: culture is shaped not by what gets said (the ‘talk’) but by what gets done (the ‘walk’). It’s an idea so powerfully simple that we ultimately named our consultancy after it.

Carolyn Taylor, our Co-Founder & Executive Chair, has been one of the world’s foremost organisational culture experts since the days when ‘culture’ was something you made yoghurt with. Initially, through her company Corporate Vision, then with Walking the Talk.

The mission has always been clear: to make the dream of a thriving, sustainable culture a reality for every business.

From the very start, we’ve invested heavily in creating a groundbreaking, easy-to-use methodology that makes the ‘soft’ and intangible pragmatic and do-able.

What makes us, us

Walking the Talk’s commitment to culture transformation runs deeper than a consulting proposition: it’s our reason for being.

Perhaps unusually for a consultancy, our aim really is to leave you transformed, with the capability to keep evolving yourselves, essentially making you self-sufficient in culture management.

Our vision is for every organisation in the world to have a thriving culture and we can only achieve this by building culture capability across the globe. One business at a time.
