A practical framework for shaping workplace culture

David J. Friedman’s leadership guide treats organizational culture as something leaders can deliberately shape, not simply a vague backdrop to business operations. The updated third edition adds chapters and refined guidance, presenting strategies for building a high-performing culture and connecting that work to an organization’s competitive position. Its subject is the practical challenge of defining culture and deciding what to do about it, within a business-focused framework.

Book overview

This updated and expanded Third Edition presents the author's most current thinking, with new chapters and refined guidance based on years of real-world application.

No single factor-not sales, marketing, finance, strategy, or operations-has more influence over the ultimate success of an organization than its culture. And yet, understanding exactly what culture is, and more importantly, what to do about it, has always been so murky.

In the game-changing first edition of Culture by Design, David Friedman cut through the fog and provided a simple, clear, and practical roadmap that thousands of organizations worldwide are now using to build high-performing cultures.

In this edition, you'll learn how to take the strategies he originally taught and leverage them to drive lasting competitive advantage.
