Code of Conduct Canvas Pack

Report

Create a Living Code of Conduct That Shapes Culture, Strategy, and Accountability

The Code of Conduct Canvas Pack is a comprehensive Miro template designed to help organisations co-create a meaningful, values-aligned Code of Conduct — one that lives beyond the handbook and becomes a daily reference point for decision-making, behaviour, and accountability.

This toolkit supports you through every stage of the process: from reflecting on your current culture to drafting content and embedding the Code across your systems, policies, and learning programmes. The template combines strategic thinking with cultural insight, helping you connect your values with real-world actions.

What This Template Helps You Achieve

  • Understand and surface your organisation’s actual culture, behaviours, and risks

  • Clarify your core values, expected behaviours, and what’s not acceptable

  • Draft and test a usable Code of Conduct tailored to your tone, audience, and context

  • Integrate your Code with leadership, governance, performance frameworks, and training

  • Foster ethical alignment across teams, suppliers, and partners

  • Build a foundation for trust, transparency, and cultural coherence

Who Should Use This Template

  • Sustainability and business ethics consultants

  • SMEs, nonprofits, and social enterprises

  • HR teams, culture and DEI leads

  • Leadership teams seeking values-aligned governance

  • Startups building strong cultural foundations

  • Programmes focused on ESG, compliance, and impact

Whether you’re starting from scratch or updating an outdated policy, this template provides a structured and creative way to design a Code of Conduct that is practical, inclusive, and strategically integrated.

How to Use It

Work through the canvases in three key stages:

  1. Before the Code – Map your current culture, values, and challenges

  2. Building the Code – Define ethical standards, write draft content, and align tone and structure

  3. After the Code – Embed the Code through systems, training, accountability, and leadership

The supporting canvases help you develop practical mechanisms for reporting, consequences, culture change, and even your own personal code of ethics. You can use the template in workshops, team discussions, or strategic planning sessions — individually or collaboratively.
