Culture is the game changer. Get the culture right, and a company and its people thrive. Miss the mark, and you lose. Sounds easy right? Actually, getting a culture right is anything but easy. But fortunately, the effort you invest pays off again and again. Here Diane Adams shows you how to look at your own organization so that you can lay the foundation for a culture that thrives and gives your company the edge it needs to compete in today's complex economy. This book is a front-row seat to helping you build and perpetuate a successful culture in any business, no matter its size or the competition. Adams shares her experiences and insights with extraordinary leaders such as John Chambers from Cisco and Lars Bjork of Qlik and their companies so you can see firsthand how successful companies build these cultures despite stiff competition and up and down economies.
