The Ships Are Burning is part catharsis, part rant, and part practical guide. Written while Covid-19 was just beginning to overtake the globe, it became evident the need for creating authentic trust and connection in the workplace was more critical than ever.
With Zoom Fatigue, we learned video conferencing wasn't the answer. Nor are the consultants with reports and PowerPoints in hand. Culture cheerleaders are still aplenty with platitudes and "Hang in There" posters. HR initiatives failed us. Leadership has too often not walked the difficult walk. And returning to normal (the past) is a complete fantasy advantageous to only a select few.
The Ships are Burning provides a blend of narratives, examples and techniques woven together around the theme of Organizational Culture. It doesn't claim to be the best way forward, but it's an honest and direct treatise unafraid to confront the BS and tokenism which regularly plays out in our work environments.
The readers will discover a challenge to conventional practices of culture change within organizations, explore understanding of culture from a practitioner's direct experience, and pocket some practical thinking and actions to begin an authentic cultural shift.
