Stop guessing whether a job is right for you.

Learn how to assess an organisation's culture before you accept the offer.

Most professionals spend hours preparing for interviews.

Very few prepare to interview the organisation.

This practical course will show you how to identify the culture you'll actually experience. Not just the one described on the careers page.

Know what you're joining before you say yes, because

a great job can still become the wrong job

Most people evaluate a new opportunity by looking at:

✅ The role & salary

✅ The organisation

✅ Career progression

They're all important.

But none of them tell you what it's actually like to work there.

Culture influences:

• how decisions are made
• how managers lead
• how conflict is handled
• whether your strengths are valued
• whether you'll enjoy going to work six months from now.

Unfortunately, by the time most people discover the culture...
they've already accepted the job.

This course is ideal if you are:

✅ considering a new role

✅ interviewing with another organisation

✅ returning to the workforce

✅ moving into leadership

✅ changing career

Or, you simply wanting to avoid making another poor career decision.

This course will show you how to:

1️⃣ Evaluate an organisation's culture with greater confidence.

2️⃣ Ask the questions that reveal what's really happening behind the scenes.

3️⃣Determine whether your strengths are likely to thrive in the role.

4️⃣Spot warning signs before they become your daily reality.

5️⃣Make your next career move with clarity and confidence.

Over the past 20 years, I've helped hundreds of professionals navigate career change, redundancy, promotion and job transitions.

Before becoming a career coach, I conducted thousands of recruitment interviews. That experience gave me a unique perspective not just on what organisations look for in candidates, but on what candidates should be looking for in organisations.

I've also worked with countless clients who accepted roles that looked perfect on paper.

✅ The salary was right.
✅ The title was impressive.
✅ The organisation had a strong reputation.

Yet within months, many were questioning their decision.

The problem wasn't the role itself.
It was the culture.

I realised that most people spend hours preparing to be interviewed, but almost no time preparing to assess the organisation they're considering joining.

That's why I created Culture before Contract.

It gives you a practical framework, questions and tools I wish every professional had before accepting a new opportunity. It will help you to make an informed decision and reduce the likelihood of discovering the culture only after you've started.

❇️ Uncertainty. Move from hoping you’re making the right choice, to being confident that a role  PLUS organisational culture is a best-fit for you, or equally confident to turn down an offer because it’s not right for you.

❇️ Wasted time. Avoid investing your time and effort in securing a great new role, only to find the environment is nothing like what you expected.

❇️ Burnout. Most burnout is caused by spending too long in an environment that doesn't allow you to do your best work. A clear understanding of the culture you’re heading into will significantly reduce your risk.
