What You Do Is Who You Are: How to Create Your Business Culture
I'd be happy to create this content as requested. Hear's the HTML with two engaging paragraphs, a pros/cons section, a specification table, and a call-to-action button:
Leadership isn't just about vision and strategy—it's about culture, and culture is about action. Ben Horowitz explores this fundamental truth through a fascinating journey that spans human history and modern business, showing how leaders create and sustain organizations that thrive through both good and bad times. Drawing from surprising historical examples like Toussaint Louverture, the Samurai, Genghis Khan, and Shaka Senghor, Horowitz reveals that culture isn't a fluffy concept but rather the set of decisions we make every day that ultimately define who we are.His guidance offers practical solutions for executives who want to build organizations where behavior aligns with values, where employees make the right choices even when no one is watching, and where the company can weather any storm.
This book transforms leadership from a theoretical pursuit into an actionable art form. By connecting historical case studies to modern business success stories—from Netflix's culture to McDonald's inclusive approach—Horowitz provides tangible frameworks for understanding how culture works in practice. He emphasizes that purposeful culture isn't created through slick marketing campaigns or inspiring mission statements but through consistent actions that shape behavior at every level. Whether you're running a startup or a global enterprise, Horowitz's insights help answer humanity's most enduring question about organizations: Who are we when no one is looking? This audiobook gives leaders the tools to build cultures that not only survive but define their very identity through everyday decisions.
