SPEAK-UP CULTURE
Giving voice to the company: beyond compliance, a benefit for all
The companies that truly grow are those that know how to listen.
This is the essence of Speak-Up Culture: turning listening into value and transparency into a competitive advantage.
The Speak-Up Culture is a strategic driver to promote transparency, inclusion, and sustainability — going beyond mandatory compliance requirements.
Whether you are a large enterprise or an SME with more than five employees, many regulations (Legislative Decree 24/2023, Model 231) and voluntary standards (ISO 37001, UNI/PdR 125) already call for the activation of reporting channels.
But only through a genuine Speak-Up Policy does compliance become an opportunity: strengthening workplace climate, empowering people, and improving competitiveness.
What is Speak-Up Culture?
It is an approach based on dialogue, trust, and shared responsibility.
It means creating an environment where everyone feels free to raise concerns, share ideas, or report issues — knowing they will be heard and protected.
The three pillars of Speak-Up Culture:
- 🗣 Authentic listening: Every voice matters, not only the loudest or most experienced.
- 🛡 Psychological safety: No fear of retaliation, judgment, or exclusion.
- 🤝 Shared responsibility: Preventing issues, improving together, and growing as one.
