This book uses real-life examples to weave together a compelling approach. 

Some of the examples include stories related to Google, the Spurs, and Navy Seals. He presents a clear view of what culture is and how to achieve a better one. I love his definition of culture, “Culture is a set of living relationships working toward a shared goal. It’s not something you are, it’s something you do.”

From Brad's list on improving workplace culture.

Coyle explores why some groups are far more successful than other groups. It’s not about intelligence, nor is it tied to pay or other incentives. It’s about the culture of the group, the norms for how they work together and get along. Once you understand these norms, you can drive them into the culture of your organization, with amazing results.
