"From the New York Times bestselling author of The Talent Code comes a book that unlocks the secrets of highly successful groups and provides tomorrow's leaders with the tools to build a cohesive, motivated culture. Where does great culture come from? How do you build and sustain it in your group, or strengthen a culture that needs fixing?

Warum arbeitet das Team so gut zusammen?

Wie die meisten Englischsprachigen Sachbücher ist "The Culture Code" außerdem extrem unterhaltsam geschrieben und bringt viele anschauliche Beispiele.

Review of 'The culture code' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

Leaders need to create a positive environment where people feel comfortable if they are wrong or fail. Not that failure is good. This starts at the top by the leader admitting vulnerability and owning mistakes. It also finds that one bad apple really can spoil the bunch unless they are handled with TLC. I have been in organizations that are the negative example and the positive so I fel the author is right on these thing. Like Navy SEALs say there are no bad teams just bad leaders.
