In today's hyper-competitive world, organizations must be willing to adapt and transform according to the demands of the changing times. Rayburn Electric Cooperative in Texas paves the way and shows how a modern not-for-profit organization runs, following the core values of integrity, respect, excellence, and innovation. In Status Quo Is Not Company Policy, Rayburn CEO David A. Naylor and Heidi Scott take readers through the entire framework of the organization, sharing how it rose from the brink of bankruptcy to become a $1 billion company. This book is for senior executives, managers, and business leaders to help them nurture a culture of excellence and foster an environment of growth and development, build a trust bank, keep communications lines open at an executive level, dive into the hiring process, invest in people and embrace generational diversity, and more.

Aspiring entrepreneurs will not find a better book to learn the fundamentals of running a successful modern company than Status Quo Is Not Company Policy. Using real-life anecdotes, examples, practical observations, and keen insights, David A. Naylor and Heidi Scott offer readers a transformative guide to success that focuses on leadership excellence, adaptability, and innovation. This book will show you how to keep communication channels open in an organization with a hands-off leadership style. Readers also get a behind-the-scenes look into the Rayburn Electric Cooperative and how it operates as a member and mission-driven organization at every level. The book is well-structured and accessible for all kinds of readers. I found this to be a very informative and inspirational guide for any entrepreneur or professional in a managerial or leadership role. Highly recommended.
