You can change your company's culture.

Organizational culture often feels like something that has a life of its own. But leaders are the stewards of a company's culture and have the power to shape and even change it.

This book will inspire you to:

See what your company culture is currently like--and what it could be
Explore your company's emotional culture
Gather input on what needs to be fixed or initiated
Improve collaboration
Foster a culture of trust
Articulate the new culture's mission, values, and expectations
