In the ever-changing world of business, we've arrived at a point where process has trumped culture, where the race toward efficiency has made us complacent and unable to reach our potential. Stuck in the land of status quo, we've forgotten how to think. And the very structures put in place to help businesses grow are now holding them back. It's time to Kill the Company. What this audiobook suggests is simple: to SIMPLIFY by getting rid of things first rather than continually building on what doesn't work; a form of spring cleaning for your organization.

Inspiring message about innovation
Reviewed: 07-08-14
Would you listen to Kill the Company again? Why?
Yes, it was a very inspiring and powerful message about changing your organization with an innovation revolution. The tips and techniques would be a great refresher if I listened to Kill the Company again.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Kill the Company?
Her book made me realize that innovation or efficiency doesn’t always have to be about a huge organization-wide overhaul – those don’t usually work anyways… But it’s about simple and easy things you can change in your daily work, like how you run a brainstorming session.
What aspect of Margie Lenhart’s performance would you have changed?
The narration’s voice could have been more exciting but she spoke clearly and I could follow along easily.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
You don't need to listen to it all in one sitting since it's not a story.
Any additional comments?
I never considered innovation to be part of my daily work before, but the way Lisa frames it makes it sound very attainable. Everything is broken down into simple steps and she tells you exactly how to execute specific tools that you can try out right away. I learned a lot from it.
