"Organizational Culture in Action is one of my critical go-to workbooks for leadership education because it provides practical and ethical real-world steps for diagnosing organizational culture, including diversity and inclusion practicesHighly readable, it offers numerous exemplar questions and recommendations for connecting theory and practice to sustain and transform today’s organizations." — Elisabeth E. Bennett, Ph.D., Northeastern University, USA

"I have used Organizational Culture in Action to teach the capstone course in the Organizational Communication undergraduate program for five years. My students and I find the book nicely balanced between theory and methods and ideal for those seeking to learn how to conduct organizational ethnography." — Elena Gabor, Bradley University, USA

"While maintaining an academic focus the text offers a unique contribution through the practical exercises and checks on learning designed to stimulate and engage the reader. The format makes it an ideal companion for individuals or groups who are undertaking a cultural analysis in organizations, or for the purpose of corporate training and development." — Nicholas Jackson, University of Leeds, UK

"This volume admirably balances treatment of related concepts and theories with systematic support for student completion of empirical research. The writing is accessible, and the overall approach makes for interesting – and even fun – work with students." — Bryan C. Taylor, University of Colorado Boulder, USA
