Can a manager really influence an organization's culture, or do executives just try to impose a culture on their employees? Is the concept of culture too vague to measure objectively and improve? What happens to valuable employees who feel left out by the prevailing culture? Even if a \"good\" culture makes team members happy, does it actually affect the bottom line?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis essential book answers the biggest questions about organizational culture, offering research-backed insights for leaders on shaping and managing an environment that spurs achievement.
