"Culture is often thought to be a soft academic subject that has little, if anything, to do with making money and growing a business. Build the Culture Advantage effectively connects top and bottom line results with building and managing a high-performance culture. This is the best framework for managing culture I have seen in 30-plus years in helping leaders deliver great business results."
– Greg Lee, President, Greg A. Lee & Associates and former Senior Vice President Human Resources for Motorola, Inc.; Sears, Roebuck & Company; and Whirlpool Corporation
"As a globally active enterprise, a strong and consistent corporate culture is a key driver for success which sets you apart from your competitors. I had the chance to accompany the process of applying the concepts of Build the Culture Advantage, and I am deeply impressed about the results delivered in a short period of time."
– Harald Kober, Board Member, AL-KO Kober SE
"What sets Build the Culture Advantage apart from the growing field of culture work is the definition of how 'strategic culture alignment drives sustainable performance!' This book brightly illuminates how this works through a powerful framework of building 'Cultural Maturity.' Build the Culture Advantage sets a very high bar, sails over it beautifully, and then, to boot, helps us set our own plans in motion, organizing and equipping us to implement this book’s terrific tools in our own enterprises."
– John Stahl-Wert, coauthor of the internationally bestselling books The Serving Leader and Ten Thousand Horses, and President of Serving Ventures
"The difficulty in many culture change initiatives is building a sustainable and proven process to drive an organization from its current culture to a high-performance culture. Build the Culture Advantage provides the foundation, template, and process to guide individuals and organizations to effectively manage this challenge with clarity and speed."
– William S. Neale, founder of the Neale Group, co-founder of Denison Consulting, and former President of Human Synergistics
"If you are concerned about performance, you have to be concerned about culture. High-performance organizations are developed when the culture is clearly defined, aligned with the business priorities, and managed effectively by the entire team. This book takes the mystery out of culture and its connection to performance. Using a step-by-step process, it clearly shows how the two are related and what you can do about it. If you are concerned about culture and performance, this is a must read for you and your team."
