Cordialism 
How the best companies lose their flavour. 
Erik Vermeulen 
Behavioural Economics Strategist 
#cordialism
What we’ll cover today… 
How we lose 
our flavour. 
Getting the 
flavour back. 
The HR / 
Marketing 
Partnership
What do you think when you see…
What do you think when you see…
What do you think when you see…
What does history tells us…?
“The world is changing very 
fast. Big no longer beats small. 
It’s now the fast beating the 
slow.” 
Rupert Murdoch, Chairman and CEO News Corp
Companies today are most worried 
about… 
EXPERIENCE & ENGAGEMENT 
People will judge your organization by the 
experience they or an acquaintance have with 
your brand 90% of the time and only 10% or less 
by the marketing messages they’ve heard.
Companies today are most worried 
about… 
EXPERIENCE & ENGAGEMENT 
Companies who SAY that they’re great at 
customer service often aren’t. The same 
goes for the message “our people are our 
most important asset.”
Companies today are most worried 
about… 
EXPERIENCE & ENGAGEMENT 
This represents the internal and external 
duality of successful companies in the 
experience economy. 
Engaged employees provide the best 
experiences.
No marketing campaign will convince 
someone you’re great at service when 
they’ve had a lousy EXPERIENCE 
from a disengaged employee that 
demonstrates the opposite.
How do 
we lose 
flavour?
Your Company
Your Idea
Your Ideal Mix
Your Growth 
• More people 
• More systems 
• More processes 
• More control(s) 
• Different backgrounds 
• Different behaviours 
• Different goals 
• Different motivation 
• …
Reputation = Experience - Expect
Your diluted Flavour
Why is company culture 
important?
In 1995, the 
average person 
had 27 
connections. 
In 2015, the 
average person 
will have 
415 
connections.
Right now, Gen Y outnumber 
Baby Boomers, 
96% belong to Social Networks
68% of customers 
leave because of poor 
employee attitude
41% of customers are 
loyal because of a good 
employee attitude
70% of customer brand 
perception is determined 
by experiences with people
Your marketing department 
does not own your brand or 
your culture, it belongs to the 
collective behaviour of your 
employees.

Success = Growth = Employees 
Engaged employees work with 
passion and feel a profound 
connection to their company. 
They drive innovation and 
move the organization 
forward. 
Actively 
Disengaged 
employees aren’t 
just unhappy at 
work; they’re busy 
acting out their 
unhappiness. Every 
day, these workers 
undermine what 
their engaged co-workers 
accomplish. 
Not Engaged 
employees are 
essentially “checked 
out.” They’re 
putting in time — 
but not energy or 
passion — into 
their work.
Success = Growth = Employees 
10% of employees 
are poor performers 
10% of employees 
are top performers 
The other 80% are 
fence sitters and 
just get on with 
being “vanilla”

employees?

Flavour? What flavour?
“The goal is not to do business with 
everybody who needs what you have. 
The goal is to do business with 
people who believe what you 
believe.” 
Simon Sinek
Brand 
strength 
Challenge 
Building advocacy 
5 Advocacy 
I believe in what we do and I 
recommend our brand 
4 Action 
I know what I can do to 
support our brand 
3 Ability 
I have the skills and 
knowledge I need 
2 Attitude It makes sense to me 
1 Awareness I know what we stand for
“We change behaviour by framing what 
we want people to do into something 
that is relevant to them.”
The ‘new’ culture should not be 
seen as ‘new’. It should be seen 
as a business case that rests on 
doing what’s required to meet 
the future demands of our 
clients.
5 ways to 
get your 
flavour 
back.
1. Get the right people on board 
(achievements are useless without context)
MEN WANTED 
For a hazardous journey. 
Small wages, bitter cold, long 
months of complete darkness, 
constant danger, safe return 
doubtful. 
Honour and recognition in case of 
success.
2. Give people PURPOSE 
(beyond pleasing)
Yesterday, today, tomorrow… 
The way people define themselves has changed. 
Very long ago: Man / Woman 
Long ago: Hunter / Gatherer 
Recent: Skills (industrialisation) 
Today: Career 
Tomorrow: Meaning people add or create.
The Golden Circle 
WHY? 
At Apple we believe in 
challenging the status quo, in 
thinking differently. Making a 
dent in the universe. 
HOW? 
To challenge the status quo, we 
make sure our products are 
beautifully designed and easy 
to use, and user-friendly. 
WHAT? 
We sell computers, laptops, 
cellphones, tablets etc that are 
highly stylised and consumer 
friendly. 
WHY HOW WHAT
3. Get people ENGAGED 
(get them to give a damn)
21% 
Engaged 
41% 
Enrolled 
30% 
Disenchanted 
Significantly lower 
on all three 
components of 
engagement 
High scores on 
rational and 
motivational 
components, but 
low on emotional 
That’s only 1 in 5 
Global Workforce Survey 
8% 
Disengaged 
Completely 
disconnected 
rationally, 
motivationally and 
emotionally 
Global Results (based on rational, emotional, motivational): Based on a global survey of 90,000 employees in 18 
countries and Tower Perrin’s database of 2 million annual responses in 40 countries

“You can’t sell it outside if you can’t sell 
it inside.”

4. Provide the correct 
BEHAVIOURAL FRAMEWORK 
(something to do)
What we allow will continue.
? Company goals determined by EXCO that 
will result from behaviours. 
Life Skills / Values / Motivation / Attitudes 
Vision, Mission and Values that are corporate 
focused, but individually applicable. 
I am / I do 
? 
A set of behaviours / Actions that guide all 
employees at every level of the organisation. 
I am / I do 
? 
Increase in goal-directed Actions 
Strengthening the underlying behaviours lead to positive actions 
towards achieving the company goals. 
In order to achieve high standards of success, you are 
required propel yourself forward towards your goals. 
?
Values
Goals 
Average companies give people 
something to work on, innovative 
organisations give their people 
something to work toward.
BEHAVIOURS 
Reputations are the result of what 
people in the organisation 
consistently do.
“By aligning what we say we do, with 
what we actually do, we positively 
influence what our customers think and 
feel.”
5. RECOGNISE performance 
(something for doing good)
