Every museum has a catalogue.
The Museum You Carry is the catalogue for this one.
Six rooms. Countless objects. Every single one fictional. Every single one recognisable. The kind of book that makes you look differently at the organisation you walked into on Monday morning – and every one you have walked into before.
It is not a business book. It is not a framework with a foreword. It is a museum catalogue for organisational culture: the artefacts, rituals, and inherited processes that shape how work actually feels, written as if they have been collected, curated, and put on display.
Because they have.
