Why Simple Wins helps leaders and their teams move beyond the feelings of frustration and futility that come with so much unproductive work in todays corporate world to create a corporate culture where valuable, essential, meaningful work is the norm. By learning how to eliminate redundancies, communicate with clarity, and make simplification a habit, individuals and companies can begin to recognize which activities are time-sucks and which create lasting value.Lisa Bodells simplification method has several unique principles:Simplification is a skill thats available to us all, yet very few leaders use it.Simplification is the right thing to dofor our customers, for our company, and for each other. Operating with simplification as our core business model will make it easier to be respectful of each others time.Simplification drives culture, and culture in turn drives employee engagement, customer relations, and overall productivity.This book is inspired by Bodells passion for eliminating barriers to innovation and productivity.
