Recommendation

Organizations with thriving corporate cultures – in which employees are engaged and energized – usually outperform their competitors. Executives and managers can reshape their corporate cultures to inspire their workers to be loyal, enthusiastic and dedicated. Global workplace experts Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton discuss how successful business leaders turbocharge their corporate cultures, thus increasing their bottom line and making their employees proud to be part of their companies. While some of their illustrative case histories strain a little to make the authors’ point about corporate culture, most are credible and instructive. getAbstract recommends their insights to all managers eager to win employee commitment and enthusiasm.

Take-Aways

  • Companies with strong cultures beat those with weak cultures.
  • More than strategy or products, your organization’s culture determines its success.
  • Executives and managers directly shape their employees’ culture for good or for ill.
