From the Inside Flap

In many industries and organizations, the almighty bottom line trumps the interests and well-being of the employees responsible for delivering actual results. All too often, managers and executives forget that the best way to boost profits is to promote the best interests of their employees and team members.

In Culture Is the Way: How Leaders at Every Level Build an Organization for Speed, Impact, and Excellence , former football pro and globally recognized leadership coach Matt Mayberry delivers an engaging and effective guide to driving organizational excellence by bringing out the best in your employees. It’s an expert handbook on helping your team members become the best versions of themselves and―in the process―transform your organization’s performance from good to exceptional.

You’ll learn to turn your workplace’s culture into a permanent competitive advantage, powering through unexpected and unprecedented economic challenges, with skill and agility. This actionable workplace culture manual shows you how to thrive in times of uncertainty―and even chaos―and win the future of work.

Culture Is the Way draws on the most recent and relevant research and data and translates it into hands-on and practical prescriptions that any company―no matter its size―can apply immediately. It is an antidote to the cutthroat philosophies that put profits before well-being and, in the process, fail to maximize either.

An essential roadmap to outperforming your firm’s competitors, and turning your remote, hybrid, and in-person offices into powerhouses of productivity and employee fulfilment, Culture Is the Way will earn a place in the libraries of executives, managers, and other business leaders who are looking for ways to attract, recruit, and retain the best talent and dramatically improve organizational performance.
