CultureCode — Executive Advisory & Consulting

Aligning people, culture and delivery.

CultureCode partners with Boards and executive teams on HR & people strategy, transformation and technology, leadership coaching, and programme delivery — across New Zealand and internationally.

Nearly three decades in the room where it counts

From the boardroom to the front line.

Leah has spent almost 30 years moving between the two — leading HRIS and ERP transformations, coaching senior leaders, and running the programmes that make change stick, across public, private and not-for-profit organisations.

How CultureCode Works

The principles behind every engagement.

Board to front line

Leah works at every level of an organisation, translating strategy into something people can actually act on.

Practical over theoretical

Every engagement is grounded in delivery — plans that hold up against real budgets, timeframes and people.

Built to last

Leah coaches the people around her so capability stays in the organisation after she leaves, not locked away in a notebook.
