Humans Working: The Book
Why culture and mindset beat strategy
What if a simple understanding of how the mind works was all you needed to build a business that inspired innovation, productivity, loyalty and the ability to continually solve complex business problems? What if you never needed to study “proven strategies” or buy into someone else’s success story?
The challenges of high pressure deadlines, demanding clients, and the need to always be “creatively on” can all be handled with far more grace and assuredness by taking note, and being inspired by Naphtali’s book. [Thomas O’Connell | Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Heart]
This book goes much deeper than sharing organizational-level practices and strategies; it points to an understanding of human nature that applies to all people in all settings. [Amy Johnson, Ph.D. | Psychologist, Coach and Author]
Now available on Amazon/Audible in paperback, Kindle and audiobook formats.
