If you are interested in organizational culture that is high trust and high performant then I would read the Toyota book series I have listed.  watch my video first. 

If you want bleeding edge “what organization culture” could look like start with the Kelly Mcgonical Ted talk then watch Alia Crum then watch my video listed. 

Mark Burgess’ book is a masterpiece (hard to read) on systems thinking, complexity, uncertainty and something he came up with called Promise theory. 

The devops chain of the Goal, Phoenix Project and my Handbook is also a good thread.  My guess is based on our conversation you should either start with Toyota stuff or Mindset stuff.  

Dekker stuff is masterful on human factors and resilience ..


Of course here is a list of all my presentations over the past 6 years…
