Download or read book An Everyone Culture written by Robert Kegan and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Radical New Model for Unleashing Your Company’s Potential In most organizations nearly everyone is doing a second job no one is paying them for—namely, covering their weaknesses, trying to look their best, and managing other people’s impressions of them. There may be no greater waste of a company’s resources. The ultimate cost: neither the organization nor its people are able to realize their full potential. What if a company did everything in its power to create a culture in which everyone—not just select “high potentials”—could overcome their own internal barriers to change and use errors and vulnerabilities as prime opportunities for personal and company growth? Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey (and their collaborators) have found and studied such companies—Deliberately Developmental Organizations. A DDO is organized around the simple but radical conviction that organizations will best prosper when they are more deeply aligned with people’s strongest motive, which is to grow. This means going beyond consigning “people development” to high-potential programs, executive coaching, or once-a-year off-sites. It means fashioning an organizational culture in which support of people’s development is woven into the daily fabric of working life and the company’s regular operations, daily routines, and conversations. An Everyone Culture dives deep into the worlds of three leading companies that embody this breakthrough approach. It reveals the design principles, concrete practices, and underlying science at the heart of DDOs—from their disciplined approach to giving feedback, to how they use meetings, to the distinctive way that managers and leaders define their roles. The authors then show readers how to build this developmental culture in their own organizations. This book demonstrates a whole new way of being at work. It suggests that the culture you create is your strategy—and that the key to success is developing everyone.

Download or read book Great Corporate Culture The Ultimate Business Development Engine To Grow Earnings By 50 written by Marcus Deiss and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-27 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Corporate Culture addresses misconceptions about the sales process and combines basic sales principles with best-practice business development methods to unlock the B2B sales performance potential.Despite rigorous research, little reliable evidence existed up to now about the financial impact that can be realised with a happy workplace, or on the contrary, the earnings decline from a toxic workplace. Therefore, many leaders are still unwilling or unable to decide among competing values, beliefs, and parties to shape a productive corporate culture. The consequences are toxic workplaces that cost organisations millions in delayed revenues and missed or lost business deals, along with highemployee turnover and even harmful brand exposure. Great Corporate Culture explains the theory behind building an internal culture and how to apply these understandings through the lens of business development performance. Where business development is a challenge, it's usually because of your corporate culture challenge.

Download or read book Strategic Pragmatism written by Edgar H. Schein and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1996-06-17 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: foreword by Lester Thurow Per capita income in Singapore has gone from $500 to more than $20,000 in a little over twenty-five years. Edgar Schein, a social psychologist with a long and celebrated research interest in organizational studies, examines the cultural history of the key intstitution that spawned this economic miracle. Through interviews and full access to Singapore's Economic Development Board (EDB), Schein shows how economic development was successfully promoted. He delves into the individual relationships and the overall structure that contributed to the EDB's effectiveness in propelling Singapore, one of Asia's "little dragons" into the modern era. In his foreword, Lester Thurrow locates Schein's organizational and case-specific account within a larger economic and comparative framework. Over a period of two years, Schein studied how the EDB was created, the kind of leadership it provided, the management structure it used, the human resource policies it pursued, and how it influenced other organizations within the Singapore government. Schein sat in on EDB meetings and extensively interviewed current and former members of the board, Singapore's leaders who created the board, and businesspeople who have dealt with the board. His book intertwines the perspective of the board's members and its investor clients in an analysis that uses both organization and cross-cultural theory. Although there are currently studies of comparable Japanese and Korean organizations, this is the first detailed analysis of the internal structure and functioning of the economic development body of Singapore, a key player in the Asian and world markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Readers’ Favorite® silver medal! “Can help your organization create the culture needed to move to the next level of success.”—Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50, #1 Leadership Thinker, #1 Executive Coach in the World Culture is the soul of any organization, whether a gas station, church or international corporate powerhouse. A strong culture breeds loyalty, innovation, and success. A weak culture will breed cynicism, apathy, instability, and the eventual demise of the organization. Yet, culture is an often-overlooked aspect of business thinking and strategy. Positive culture can’t be maintained without such critical factors as respect, job satisfaction, involvement, loyalty, shared affection, preparedness to change, and responsibility, which defines the engagement of everyone in an organization. Teamwork, innovativeness, professionalism, accountability, shared vision, and trust form the main asset of any organization, its metaphysical resources. They define the nature of psychological power residing in culture and have direct impact on a company’s performance and achievement of its goals. Whether or not this potential is realized depends on how effectively it is exploited. In this book, a reader will learn what culture is, why it is important and how to fix it when it goes wrong. Leaders, management, as well as employees on the front lines will benefit from the discussion. This book is for those rising above the ordinary every day. “This book is among the most comprehensive, insightful and educational books I have ever read on how to build a world-class culture. This a must read on this extremely critical topic.”—John Spence, Top 100 Business Thought Leader & Small Business Influencer in the USA
