Hyland puts her heart, soul, and wisdom into this book that helps every reader take part in uncovering culture—not only in their workplaces but in their personal lives and communities as well.
I read this book night after night, nodding my head, highlighting passages, and scribbling notes I wanted to share with my team. I gifted this book to women in leadership who’d not yet heard of Hyland but needed to.
People want this. They need this. They need to feel like they can be a part of the solution to creating amazing cultures at work—and have the permission to walk away from those cultures not meant for them. Highly recommend this book for every leader—new and seasoned.
