Book Culture was founded as Labyrinth Books in 1997 by current owner Chris Doeblin and his partner at the time Cliff Simms. In the summer of 2007, Book Culture became a completely independent company when Doeblin bought out his partners. In the fall of 2009 Book Culture opened a second location, Book Culture On Broadway. In January 2010 Annie Hedrick joined Chris Doeblin as co-owner of the two stores. There has been an independent bookstore on the corner of Broadway at 114th Street for over fifty years. Now, with the strong support of the Morningside Heights community and the faculty and administration of Columbia University we are carrying on the tradition. Book Culture on Broadway is a true community bookstore. Located in the heart of the neighborhood, we are a meeting place, a fun place to stop and above all, a real bookstore. Book Culture opened Book Culture on Columbus in November of 2014 on the Upper West Side, adding Rick MacArthur, president and publisher of Harper’s Magazine, as a co-owner of the new store. This store, on the corner of 82nd and Columbus Ave, is in what was once Endicott Booksellers.

We’re a creative management consultancy, part of Accenture. Leaders around the world work with us to inspire and activate people across their entire organisation. They’ve chosen to partner with us for over 20 years as pioneers in the transformative power of story to execute strategy, accelerate change and unlock extraordinary performance. And in today's world of unprecedented change, we help them to avoid becoming irrelevant and future-proof their business. Leaders need a mechanism to move their people from passive understanding to being compelled to take action – activating their people to bridge the gap between strategy and execution - where 70% of transformations fail. For the whole business to understand your strategy is one thing. To believe in it, commit to it, align behind it and become actively involved is quite another. Our expertise lies in both. And clients work with us over many years because of the impact on their people and culture, and the commercial results that follow. Bringing together expertise in behavioural change, business consultancy, leadership development, storytelling and creativity, we work side by side with leaders to develop and deliver an activation strategy that changes mindsets and behaviours, builds capability and helps create resilient, thriving organisations. Aligning around a compelling narrative framework, we connect them at a rational and emotional level through a roadmap of experiences and events, award-winning film, creative campaigns and communications, leadership development, learning solutions, coaching and facilitation. Without this connection, it is incredibly difficult to create the energy and ownership to sustain long-term strategic change. But with the support of a story-driven activation strategy, our 200+ clients have seen dramatic upward shifts in retention and advocacy, employee engagement, operational efficiency, NPS scores, customer satisfaction and overall shareholder value. www.thestorytellers.com
