Culture Analytics is a veritable must read for anyone studying organizational culture. Nabeel (Chief Behavioural Scientist at iPsychTec in London, UK) has opened the door for a critical understanding of organizational culture and values. Written in plain language, which makes even difficult analysis and measurement of the topic seem elementary, the book also gives readers the tools to predict and interpret the results of organizational culture evaluations. Nabeel takes a challenging and often befuddling topic and, through clear explanations, numerous figures, and tables, provides readers with practical guidance on what organizational culture is and how to document and evaluate it. Anyone who believes that creating a resilient, thriving culture within an organization is too difficult or impossible should reconsider and use this book, based on years of research, as a diagnostic tool and road map to determine what works for leaders and employees and how to focus efforts to make the desired changes within the organization. Culture Analytics is the book for anyone trying to understand culture and workplace environments and make informed decisions or create feedback loops to boost organizational outcomes based on informative, adaptable research.
