Below are the slides from a keynote I did last week. I pulled out five lessons from the Humanize book that I think are most relevant to creating a stronger culture:

• Decentralization
• Transparency
• Systems Thinking
• Ownership, and
• Experimentation.

But remember, just because I can frame it as five “tips,” doesn’t mean this work is easy. There is no roadmap to the perfect culture. That’s because there is no single, perfect culture, just like there is no single, perfect human.

You’ll have to figure out exactly how these ideas connect to your organizational context. You’ll have to decide if these are the tips that your culture really needs. And then you’ll have to make the changes–wherever you sit in the organizational structure. But if you step up, and take the “red pill” as Neo did, you have the opportunity to create some amazing organizations.
