{"product_id":"powerful-building-a-culture-of-freedom-and-responsibility","title":"Powerful: Building a Culture of Freedom and Responsibility","description":"Named by The Washington Post as one of the 11 Leadership Books to Read in 2018\n\nWhen it comes to recruiting, motivating, and creating great teams, Patty McCord says most companies have it all wrong. McCord helped create the unique and high-performing culture at Netflix, where she was chief talent officer. In her new book, Powerful: Building a Culture of Freedom and Responsibility, she shares what she learned there and elsewhere in Silicon Valley.\n\nMcCord advocates practicing radical honesty in the workplace, saying good-bye to employees who don’t fit the company’s emerging needs, and motivating with challenging work, not promises, perks, and bonus plans. McCord argues that the old standbys of corporate HR―annual performance reviews, retention plans, employee empowerment and engagement programs―often end up being a colossal waste of time and resources. Her road-tested advice, offered with humor and irreverence, provides readers a different path for creating a culture of high performance and profitability.\n\nPowerful will change how you think about work and the way a business should be run.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1939714095\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.1939714095.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:McCord, Patty\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
