About the Book

Many leaders undervalue the power of culture as a competitive advantage. Don't make that mistake. LIVEculture offers tips from successful creative leaders on how they shaped, communicated, and grew the cultures they wanted for their organizations. Their stories of how they use culture to boost performance are inspiring, sometimes funny, and immediately useful. Learn the secrets of a Gang of creative leaders who continuously do things differently to get better, and happen to beat their competition along the way.
About the Author: Nancy K. Napier, Distinguished professor and director of the Centre for Creativity and Innovation at Boise State University and adjunct professor at Aalborg University (Denmark), scours the world for ideas-from Vietnam to Botswana. Mostly, she loves the ones from The Gang and its offshoots and hopes this book will inspire wise gangs to spring up everywhere. Jamie Cooper, CEO of Drake Cooper, has helped his firm achieve many professional awards, whistles on his bike as he rides to work, and, if he ever needed a new career, could do impressions. Mark Hofflund, managing director of the Idaho Shakespeare Festival and a board member for the National Endowment of the Arts, ran track for Princeton in college, and manages stage wildlife with aplomb, as in deer, geese, and skunks. Don Kemper, founder and CEO of Healthwise, is a regular national and international speaker on consumer healthcare issues, invites well-behaved dogs to join their owners at work, and walks more miles than most people drive. Bob Lokken, founder and CEO of WhiteCloud Analytics, has given in to being an unrelenting serial entrepreneur who once tried to retire to play golf but decided that was harder work than starting new firms. Gary Raney, sheriff of the Ada County Sheriff's Office, once said an inmate's escape was a good thing-to help the office throw off complacency. His untapped talent is organizing competitive cooking events. Leon Rice, head basketball coach at Boise State University, pushes his players to excel but when he needs to, he can swish a shot from center court, just to show he can. John Michael Schert, visiting artist and social entrepreneur, teaches creative process to MBA students at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business, and must be the only international dancer who also played a mean game of high school football in Valdosta, Georgia.
