Description

Gallup surveys show that two out of three employees are disengaged to some degree-loudly proclaiming that culture is an essential component to business success.

In this novel, newly appointed medical company president Jason Bailey inherits a disconnected enterprise that's struggling from a lack of leadership, alignment, and direction. All business metrics point down, placing the company's future at a tipping point.

With a product breakthrough in the wings, Jason and a revamped senior leadership group must establish the foundational culture and systems if they are to successfully develop and sustain the new offering and turn this struggling company around. Will it be in time? Will it be enough?

From forming through storming to norming and performing, follow Jason and his team as they balance business and people-centric principles in this comprehensive blueprint for success.
