When faced with the prospect of making major shifts, in both life and business, many people find themselves feeling intimidated or unprepared. It's easy to get comfortable in your current situation, and the idea of disrupting the status quo might make you think twice before speaking up. But, it doesn't have to be this way.

It is rigorous, deeply personal, experience based, and, if done well, life changing. Rodgers and Kangas offer a complete guide, from design to implementation to results.

Organizational change doesn’t have to be so difficult.

There are four stages of transition that all of us experience when making a successful adjustment to a new work situation...and eight common, potentially negative consequences that are likely to accompany any organizational change initiative.

Since Peter Senge published his groundbreaking book The Fifth Discipline, he and his associates have frequently been asked by the business community: "How do we go beyond the first steps of corporate change? How do we sustain momentum?" They know that companies and organizations cannot thrive today without learning to adapt their attitudes and practices.

Who or what is killing change? That's what you'll find out in this witty whodunit. The story features a Columbo-style detective, Agent Mike McNally, who's investigating the murder of yet another change. One by one, Agent McNally interviews 13 prime suspects, including a myopic leader named Victoria Vision; a chronically tardy manager named Ernest Urgency; an executive named Clair Communication, whose laryngitis makes communication all but impossible; and several other dubious characters.

An innovative communication method for making change happen in any organization, Getting Change Right presents a new view of leadership communication that says change doesn't flow top-down, bottom-up, or sideways, but inside out. This is how change spreads through a complex system successfully - the other options are force or failure.

It's not news that globalization and ever-faster technological innovation have increased the pace of change exponentially. Existing change models were devised to deal with individual changes, one by one, but that's not a luxury leaders have any more.

Komplexe Veränderungsprozesse können in kleinere Teilziele und verschiedene Phasen unterteilt werden. Change funktioniert am besten dann, wenn Mitarbeiter in einer angstfreien Umgebung mit einer klaren Vision den Fokus aufs Wesentliche legen können.
