Worse, individuals are not engaged in their work, nor with the organizations to which they belong, a sad fact that is costing billions in lost productivity.

If you want to learn how to accelerate organizational transformation in a data driven, scientifically supported way, to make work more meaningful for all humans, then this book is for you"-- Provided by publisher.
