8 radical lessons from 100 of the world’s most inspiring companies Today’s workplaces are broken. Badly broken. With 85% of employees disengaged, 23% feeling burned out and 37% believing that their job makes no useful contribution to society, work as we know it today is simply not working.

The good news? There is a better way. And it's not just theory. It's already practiced in pioneering organisations around the globe. Drawing on Minnaar and De Morree’s visits to 100+ of the world’s most progressive organisations, this book gives direct evidence that you can make work enjoyable and rewarding, while boosting performance and success.

This book is for people who know workplaces could, and should, be better. Whether you’re in the leadership team, a rebel who has been suppressed by corporate dogma or a manager who is trapped in the broken system: this book is for you!

Review of 'Corporate Rebels' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This book falls into the category of business book I think of as experience reports.

Basically stories (often people building their own personal mythos) that tell their experiences of a situation. As this is the case you need to take this book with a big pinch of salt, as these "rebels" are people who largely inherited positions of power, and people in that situation often justify it as skill over luck. The authors of the book are a couple of people who could afford to take 10 months off work to wander around the world ticking off items on their 'bucket list'. Cringe.

Having said all that, this book was fun, and while failed to provide any true depth to anything they talked about was well written, and I am going to use it as a jumping off point to read some more in this aread.
