For business success, organizations need engaged employees working in high-performing teams as well as an inclusive culture that attracts and supports these employees. Written for senior HR professionals and business leaders, this book shows how to adopt a people and culture approach in the organization rather than a people or culture focus. It provides these practitioners with the tools they need to create a purpose-driven, values-based, people-centric approach to their company culture and their HR strategy. Full of practical advice, People and Culture provides practitioners with everything they need to use their organizational culture to bring out the best in their workforce. This includes guidance on aligning values, language and behaviours as well as dedicated support on systems thinking, emotional intelligence and communication skills. This book also explores how to align the EVP (Employee Value Proposition) with company culture and how to manage the social, stakeholder and shareholder value of this people and culture approach. The final part of the book features a people and culture playbook which includes a framework for undertaking a cultural audit and tools to manage and resolve toxic behaviours. Building on the author's work on transformational culture as well as his background in conflict management, this is essential reading for all people professionals who want to optimize both their people and their culture but aren't sure where to start.
