"Dennis Pitocco says out loud what many leaders know but are afraid to admit: too many organizations have become corporate cults that value compliance, optics, and metrics more than people. I've spent decades leading teams and have seen firsthand how bureaucracy, buzzwords, and performative leadership crush innovation, trust, and commitment. The corporate cult must be dismantled. Not because it is fashionable to say so, but because it no longer serves employees, customers, shareholders, or society. The future belongs to leaders who understand that treating people as human beings is not a weakness—it is a competitive advantage. This book is a wake-up call for leaders who know there has to be a better way and are willing to do the work to build it."

Dennis has written the kind of book many people will recognize instantly and few would be bold enough to write. With unflinching honesty, candor, and sharp insight, he shines a light on the behaviors and beliefs that keep organizations productive on paper while people quietly disengage inside them. Timely, courageous, and deeply relevant, he exposes what is fundamentally broken in modern organizations while making a compelling case that trust, psychological safety, and genuine human care are not 'soft' ideals, but strategic advantages. This is a wake-up call for modern leaders who want to build workplaces where people and performance thrive together."

Bullshit is not a word I ever expected to hear Dennis Pitocco use. Yet before stepping away on his radical sabbatical, he asked friends and colleagues to help him do something important: come out from behind the curtain and call a thing a thing. Killing the Corporate Cult soon followed. Written by someone who has spent decades inside the system he critiques, it combines urgency, hard-won wisdom, and practical hope. At a time when AI is forcing organisations to rethink what humans are for, Dennis's message could not be timelier. Imagine working for an enterprise whose organising principle isn't that humanity is the cost of success but its source."

Co-Founder, The Mindset Difference | Author

"More than a manifesto, more than an exposé, Humanity Rising: Killing the Corporate Cult is a no-nonsense, blunt tour de force wrecking ball written by an insider who rose above the deeply flawed structure and culture of the corporate world. It's a practical and necessary primer to deconstruct what is not working and clear space to build something rooted in what actually matters—humanity, wellbeing, and human flourishing. All of this is based on infusing love throughout the culture of corporations and their structural underpinnings. Incorporating love isn't some fanciful aspiration; it's an essential requisite to facilitate the emergence of human potential. Dennis Pitocco doesn't just dismantle the cathedral—he shows you what's worth building in the clearing."

"This is one of the most timely books leaders and organizations need to read right now. It is bold for a reason: we need to wake up NOW. There is no room left to soften the truth about what has been happening in our workplaces for far too long. As AI transforms the future of work, we face a defining choice—continue the systems that have been draining human spirit and harming people and planet, or create workplaces that bring out the very best of humanity. The choice is ours. This book is a powerful call to make the right one."


— Ozlem Brooke Erol

Author | CEO of Purposeful Business, Inc.

"Brilliantly blunt and honestly human! To build a culture of humanity that is real and effective, we must release long-held beliefs of complacency and fear—because our people deserve it. THAT is what Humanity Rising: Killing the Corporate Cult awakens, providing insight that real connection is deeper, as well as the tools to dig it out."

— Heather Hansen O'Neill

Keynote Speaker | Author

"Thank you, Dennis, for courage, clarity, and cojones. Corporations grow through the accrual of money and influence, hence their core values are greed and manipulation. Not empathy, not community, not contentment. They are, by nature and design, pushers of addiction—to quote Mary Trump: 'too much and never enough.' It's about time we said Enough Already!"
