Emotional culture is the heartbeat of high performing teams

Emotions drive performance, shape culture and influence every decision your people make. Yet so many organisations overlook them.

For too long, workplaces have focused on strategy, process and performance metrics, while neglecting the emotional experiences that truly determine how people behave, act and connect.

The impact is clear. Teams with higher emotional connection perform up to 20% better. Employees who feel supported deliver 21% higher productivity, and people who feel valued are 4.6 times more likely to perform at their best.

At emotia, we help you and your teams turn emotional awareness into action. We show you how to create a culture where people feel connected, supported and inspired to perform at their best.

Welcome to emotia.

We’re a trusted, certified partner of riders&elephants, bringing to life the game-changing Emotional Culture Deck frameworks that are transforming how organisations around the world connect and perform.

The Emotional Culture Deck is used by more than 500,000 people across 70+ countries, including leading global brands to move emotional culture from concept to practice.

These powerful tools and frameworks help leaders and teams navigate leadership, change, team dynamics and stakeholder experiences by building an intentional emotional culture.

We don’t just talk about emotions. We help you live them through everyday actions, behaviours and conversations that bring your culture to life.

If you’re ready to build a more connected, emotionally intelligent and high-performing team, we’d love to help you make it happen.
