About this ebook

Are you often flustered by uncommitted and indifferent employees? Is your team suffering from poor productivity because of this? Do you struggle to grow your business, hampered by an ineffectual team? How about high turnover rates - the employees you wish would stay, leave, and those you wish would leave, stay? Do you sense something amiss in your team or organisational culture, but are unsure how to start addressing it? 

For any organisation, big or small, to achieve its purpose, it must have the right people, with the right mindset, bound by the right culture. A clever new business model may be a golden opportunity. A legal mandate may be a powerful driving force. Yet without the people doing execution and driving change, visions will remain just concepts. It is crucial for the leaders of an organisation to understand and shape its culture, and to mould its members into a coherent whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. 

This book posits that to create a high performance organisation in a fast-changing world, an entrepreneurial culture must be instilled in its people. It examines the key qualities of an entrepreneurial mindset, offers frameworks for understanding and transforming your organisation culture, and provides tools to put theory into practice.
