Business owners and CEOs are still designing workplaces and company cultures in antiquated ways. Its no surprise that the youth of today are shying away from corporate jobs, even vilifying them. They simply leave no space for individuality and they dont ask themselves often enough, what can we do for our people. This book is a daring and refreshing manuscript on how to break this mold and re-invent company culture. We should all be inspired going to work every day and we should feel that the places we work are extensions of our value system. After all, we can accomplish so much more working together.
Omar Samra, CEO, adventurer, and UN Goodwill Ambassador
