Lauded as the “Best Management and Workplace Culture Book of 2016” (800-CEO-READ) and the “Best Business Book in Human Resources and Employee Training” (Axiom), An Everyone Culture: Becoming a Deliberately Developmental Organization™ articulates and promotes a radical new model for unleashing a company’s potential.
TDE’s founders and their Harvard collaborators identify Deliberately Developmental Organizations, which are firms organized around the simple but radical conviction that organizations will best prosper when they are more deeply aligned with people’s strongest motive, which is to grow. This means going beyond consigning “people development” to high-potential programs, executive coaching, and once-a-year-off-sites. It means fashioning an organizational culture in which support of people’s development is woven into the daily fabric of working life and the company’s regular operations. TDE demonstrates how this integration of personal and professional goals results in excellent corporate results:
An Everyone Culture was published by Harvard Business Review Press and released in 2016.
“… Join them in peering over the edge of what might just be a management revolution…”
“A bold approach, one that requires a longer view of success and the patience to accept stumbles…”
“An Everyone Culture is the most provocative recasting of human and organizational potential since the advent of the ‘learning organization.’ It will transform how you think about work and workplace culture in the twenty-first century.”
“This book speaks to the heart of what I believe: Our work environments are the perfect learning laboratories. Our focus needs to not just be on individual learning, but also on building the processes, tools, and organizational systems for learning to take place – and stick.”
“Could it be that workplaces can become the ultimate forum to help people become greater than they think possible? Read this book to find out.”
“This book is as much about realizing organizational potential, as it is about realizing human potential. No business leader, at any level, should miss this one.”
“Some fascinating ideas about how to create an organizational culture that fits the 21st century.”
