'Culture can feel vague and amorphous, a silent force that impacts everyone but is owned by no one. The Power of Culture offers a comprehensive roadmap for understanding and harnessing the transformative potential of organizational culture. Blending real-world examples with insightful analysis, Hamill equips readers to proactively - rather than passively - shape culture. Essential reading for building aligned and values-driven workplaces' - Elaine Lin Hering, author
'The magic of this book is that it does something few books on corporate culture are able to do-which is make perhaps the most complex topic in the business world accessible to a very wide audience. No mean feat. Hamill brings clarity of thought and scintillating writing to the many facets, complexities, and conundrums of culture, from the way it is thought of in academic circles to how it is operationalized in the C-Suite to how it is made sense of by the average employee. In the process she brings us on a journey of discovery that completely illuminates this vast topic. In particular, her take on culture as how we experience it, and her treatment of power in relation to culture are insightful and provocative. If you are only able to read one book on corporate culture, this is the one for you' - David G. White, Jr., cognitive anthropologist and author
'With The Power of Culture, Laura Hamill delivers a thought-provoking exploration of how organizational culture impacts employee and organizational success. Grounded in both research and practical experience, Hamill provides actionable strategies for cultivating positive workplace cultures that prioritize humanity and purpose. This book is a must-read for anyone invested in creating environments where people flourish' - Sir John Kirwan KNZM MBE, All Blacks rugby legend and the co-founder and visionary of Groov
