The situation

A leading shipping mutual insurer, founded in 1884, was decoupling from its parent while building a culture that could keep serving members well and attract the people it needed.

What we did

We ran our diagnostic with the leadership team and a cross-section of staff in 11 locations worldwide, and made recommendations on vision, how departments work together, diversity strategy, and performance and reward.

What changed

Standard Club adopted all of our organisation recommendations and completed its separation. It merged to become North Standard in 2023.

“Scalewell’s Fitness to Scale framework and deep engagement with our leadership team and all departments produced valuable insights that allowed us to prioritise our development - over twenty opportunities Scalewell identified were immediately acted on, producing performance and culture benefits that have had a lasting impact as we evolve our organisation.”
