In From Red Tape to Real Change, author Rachel Bennett explores one of the biggest challenges facing modern organisations: growing complexity and the hidden impact of red tape. Drawing on real experiences, particularly within social housing, she reveals how well-intended systems can slow progress, create frustration, and pull organisations away from their purpose. While rooted in housing, the principles apply to all sectors.
At the heart of the book is a practical focus on culture as the driver of real change. Building on her established frameworks, Rachel helps leaders and HR professionals cut through complexity, identify what’s holding people back, reconnect culture and purpose, and create environments where people can act.
Part One explores the problem; Part Two provides a clear, actionable way forward.
This book is for anyone ready to simplify, refocus, and create organisations that truly work.
In Shadow Cultures, author Rachel Bennett exposes a hidden yet powerful force shaping workplaces: the shadow culture. Drawing from personal experience, she reveals how these unspoken norms undermine success and why organisations must confront them.

- Navigate cultural change in an evolving workplace.
