The strategic consultant and author of Talent Unleashed presents a revolutionary blueprint for organizational success in government. Today’s government organizations face political fallout, media scrutiny, reduced funding, and the challenges of motivating large, highly regulated organizations. In many offices, these challenges have led to a vicious cycle of employee disengagement. As performance declines, scrutiny increases, and employee paralysis sets in. Breaking this cycle requires a new approach. As an Executive Vice President at Franklin Covey, Patrick Leddin helped organizations all over the world transform their culture and unleash their potential with five highly effective practices. In Building a Winning Culture in Government, he shows how government organizations can implement these same practices to inspire their employees, revitalize engagement, and become more responsive to the public interest. In Building a Winning Culture in Government, you will learn to: Lead with purpose and find your organization's mission, mantra, or manifesto. Make the 7 Habits of Highly Successful People your organization's operating system. Inspire people to go beyond your expectations. Build trust withing the organization and with the public. Create loyalty with all stakeholders.

Winner of the Readers’ Favorite® silver medal! “Can help your organization create the culture needed to move to the next level of success.”—Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50, #1 Leadership Thinker, #1 Executive Coach in the World Culture is the soul of any organization, whether a gas station, church or international corporate powerhouse. A strong culture breeds loyalty, innovation, and success. A weak culture will breed cynicism, apathy, instability, and the eventual demise of the organization. Yet, culture is an often-overlooked aspect of business thinking and strategy. Positive culture can’t be maintained without such critical factors as respect, job satisfaction, involvement, loyalty, shared affection, preparedness to change, and responsibility, which defines the engagement of everyone in an organization. Teamwork, innovativeness, professionalism, accountability, shared vision, and trust form the main asset of any organization, its metaphysical resources. They define the nature of psychological power residing in culture and have direct impact on a company’s performance and achievement of its goals. Whether or not this potential is realized depends on how effectively it is exploited. In this book, a reader will learn what culture is, why it is important and how to fix it when it goes wrong. Leaders, management, as well as employees on the front lines will benefit from the discussion. This book is for those rising above the ordinary every day. “This book is among the most comprehensive, insightful and educational books I have ever read on how to build a world-class culture. This a must read on this extremely critical topic.”—John Spence, Top 100 Business Thought Leader & Small Business Influencer in the USA

Soccer players may get all the glory, but behind every great player is a great coach. And behind every great coach today stands a cadre of mentors who dedicated decades to championing soccer's long climb from obscurity to become one of the major sports in America. It was an uphill battle, fought persistently and creatively to overcome a public perception of soccer as "foreign," "aloof," "snobby," or simply "odd." This is a story of individual and collective action, of coaches coming together to improve the sport and expand its reach. The adaptation and sharing of improved coaching methodologies has resulted in improved play on the field such that today American players (and coaches to some degree) are having an impact not just nationally, but internationally. Because of the determined and insistent efforts of the US soccer coaching community, soccer is now perceived as a rigorous, athletic pursuit. In addition to the stories found in this book are more than 50 QR codes that provide bonus information on the coaches and their careers. Relentless tells the landmark and previously untold stories of resolute coaches, their love of the game, and how they transformed the sport in the United States.

Many of the struggles that we are currently experiencing when attempting to implement Lean in the construction environment are the direct result of applying Lean tools out of proper context. Understanding Lean as an overall operating system will help to avert this all too common pitfall. An in-depth exploration of the application of Lean initiatives in the construction industry, Lean Culture for the Construction Industry: Building Responsible and Committed Project Teams, Second Edition provides updated chapters with new insights on the relationships between owners, architects, general contractors and subcontractors - demonstrating how Kaizan events focused on building positive culture through vulnerability-based trust improved processes and eliminated work stoppages. Lean tools alone don't lead to successful Lean initiatives: the missing piece is culture. Written by a veteran consultant in the construction field, the book draws a connection between how construction professionals act as leaders and how their attitude and behavior affect productivity and waste daily. While value stream mapping is an important tool for righting broken processes and resolving conflicts, future state maps will fail if leaders continue to work in silos, protect their territories, and don't see that their success is directly tied to the success of their co-leaders. The author expands the notion of ethics beyond the simple litmus test of right and wrong, so team leaders can adopt professional and productive attitudes and behaviors toward the implementation of Lean improvements. This book demonstrates how, in an industry where waste is rampant, and depends on wide range of people and personalities to successfully build a job, Lean thinking can make the difference between a profitable, competitive construction team, and mass inefficiencies, stunted profitability, and lost future opportunities.
