In this timely book, John R Childress shows that most of what we understand about corporate culture is wrong. Corporate culture is a business system, and like any critical business system, is composed of multiple drivers, all of which interact to influence "how things work around here" and ultimately, business results.</p><p><em>If you don't understand your culture, you don't understand your business!</em></p><p>With over 35 years of experience advising and supporting CEOs, Boards and senior executives on how culture impacts business results, John brings to life the 10 Core Principles of Corporate Culture and how they can be used to improve business performance, the customer experience and employee engagement. This book also explores the impact of corporate culture on important business challenges, such as Innovation, Mergers & Acquisitions, Employee Engagement, Customer Satisfaction, Value Creation, Business Growth, Leadership Development, Strategy Execution, Turnarounds, Start-Ups, Digital Transformation and Going Global. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"This wonderful book will transform our understanding of corporate culture.

Leaders and managers will find this book an invaluable guide to evolve and align their organization's culture and business strategy for building sustainable value".</em></p><p><em> - Frank Tempesta, President & CEO, Textron Systems Corp (retired)</em></p><p> </p><p>"I never really paid that much attention to culture - took it for granted - until I realized how important it is to have cultural alignment with strategy"</p><p> Eric C. Rogers, Vice President - Marketing & Strategy Execution, T.D. Williamson, Inc.</p><p> </p><p>" Of all the professionals in this field, John Childress has by far the most comprehensive and linked-up understanding of the key dimensions of, and critical levers for effecting, Corporate Culture. His latest book, Culture Rules! is truly a gift, not only to chief executives intent on achieving the extraordinary, but to the science of leadership itself. "</p><p><strong><em> </em></strong>Demetrie Comnas, Senior HR Executive, Chase Bank, (retired)</p><p> </p><p><em>"Most business leaders aspire to be the best leaders they can be. Learning the mechanics of business is necessary. But the hardest aspect of leading in business is being able to assess the Culture of a business and most importantly understanding what it truly takes to change it. John continues to journey where many fear to go, which is understanding both the hard, soft, and messy parts of corporate cultures. This is the Holy Grail of leadership; knowing how to create an environment where employees flourish and businesses succeed not because they have the right products and or services, but because they have a winning culture." </em></p><p> Ian Walsh, Chief Executive Officer and President of <strong>TRU Simulation</strong> + Training Inc.</p><p> </p><p>"In working with many internationally acclaimed speakers and authors, seldom have I had the perfect storm with a speaker/author, a critically important business topic and a book converging together at just the right time. It has happened! John Childress is a global practitioner and advisor and has focused his life's work on Culture and the significant consequences of both a good and bad cultures within an organization. John's latest book CULTURE RULES! delves deeply into culture's impact on organizational performance! Read and Learn!
