My principal provided us a copy of The Culture Code at the beginning of the school year and asked us to give it a read. Y'all, it took basically forever for me to read it. We are talking months which is not how I usually roll with reading. It wasn't because the book isn't interesting or well-written. It just seems to be how I read books like this; books on self-improvement or organizational goals and improvement are just something I must take in small bites. This isn't a writing genre that generally speaks to me, even if there is much to learn from them. That being said, I stuck with it, and am glad I did. I enjoyed how Doyle incorporated specific examples and stories of how the cultural has been established at varying types of organizations - Navy Seal teams, sports organization, corporate organizations, and even schools. It was interesting to see the common threads that they all seem to share. Although this book is lumped into the business genre, it didn't feel too "businessy" to me. I think anyone who works within a team or organization could benefit form giving it a read, especially if they are a supervisor.
