REVIEWS
The most un-bullshit laden change book I’ve ever read. Full of practical philosophy, action-oriented vision and tooled up with humanistic virtue. This is about people powering change. Doing it themselves. Feeling it and ratifying it. This book is a myth-buster and a Swiss Army knife for change.
PERRY TIMMS, Chief Energy Officer, PTHR and author of Transformational HR and The Energized Workplace
This is another great read by Neil Usher. The topic is of the utmost importance; the timing impeccable. Neil’s wittiness, deep and wide knowledge and vast practical experience permeate this new book of his. It has just been added to my list of favourites and it is a must-read for all those leading, managing, experiencing and thinking about organizational change.”
ANA NEVES, Founder, Knowman and organizer of the Social Now Conference
The key to business advantage is anticipating and navigating change – perpetual, unpredictable and interconnected. This no-nonsense book is an invaluable aid in understanding the nature of change and how to lead it successfully.
