The Culture Climb: How to Build a Work Culture That Maximizes Your Impact

Nonfiction Book Awards Silver Medalist

Culture is a mountain effective leaders must climb, and this definitive guide will take leaders to the top.

For over a decade, Jaime Taets, Chief Vision Officer and founder of Keystone Group International, has been the go-to consultant for executive teams hoping to untangle their issues and improve their businesses--profits, strategies, and services--along the way. And throughout that time, Jaime has learned that most business problems are actually people problems. To get at the root cause, leaders must go deeper than the business layer with questions that are rooted in culture and people.

Jaime developed ''The Impact Model'' for this reason; to help you as a leader understand all the factors woven together that create a strong culture.

The Culture Climb will help leaders

• understand and examine their work culture in a simple yet comprehensive way,
• discover how to use culture to grow a healthy and sustainable business, and
• push past all the theories about culture to help leaders make real change.

If you want to get your business unstuck―if you want to take it to the next level―you are going to have to address culture. The Culture Climb can show you how.
