The role of organisational culture and strategic alignment
5OS07 – Wellbeing at work
This CIPD Level 5 learning video explores how organisational culture and strategic alignment shape wellbeing outcomes, directly addressing assessment criteria AC 2.3 within the 5OS07 Wellbeing at work unit. The video examines why wellbeing initiatives cannot succeed as standalone programmes, but must instead integrate with organisational culture, people strategy, and workforce composition across different sectors and organisational sizes. By understanding these contextual factors—including organisational context, culture, and strategic fit—you'll develop the analytical skills needed to design wellbeing approaches that genuinely resonate with your specific workforce and business environment.
