Describe the situation behind Workplace Culture Assessment
Write what happened, what you observed directly, and what you are inferring. Keep people and events separate from your interpretation of motives.

Identify decision rights, reporting lines, incentives, allies, dependencies, and the people affected. Check the official policy or process where one exists.

Clarify the outcome and limits
Decide what a good outcome looks like and what you will not compromise. Note risks involving confidentiality, retaliation, policy, or employment terms.

Choose the lowest-risk next action
Start with a direct, respectful clarification or documented request when appropriate. Use facts and impact, not labels or speculation.
