This invaluable reading helped me navigate through the numerous challenges encountered when establishing a long term direction for my organization. Kotter does an excellent job in breaking down the basic elements to developing a success vision. Most importantly, his book leads you into a self evaluation of your personal traits, skills , and leadership style and how they support or encumber your goal achieving process. I believe "Leading Change" is a must read for those of us who think we are high performers and certainly recommend it for pre-interview brush ups. |

This book is excellent for anyone going through or planning to make changes in any organization. The material is straight forward, concise, and right on target. I only wish I had read this book last year before attempting to make major changes in our organization. |

As with all of Kotter's work, this has the personal perspective of someone who has been there. It deals with the realistic problems of leaders who don't take the time to actually understand the dynamics of organizational change. Kotter also puts the accountability where it belongs, with the leaders.
So many companies have been damaged by poorly led change efforts, and the misperception that failed change is the result of people just not liking change. In truth it is because they don't follow the processes that Kotter advocates.
This is a must read for people involved with change. A good supporting handbook is "Change and the Challenge of Leadership by Service Advocate a Massachusetts change leadership organization. |

John Kotter, a Harvard Business School professor, has been dubbed the "world's foremost expert on business leadership." This book has far from a professorial 'ivory tower' tone however. Prof. Kotter relied on his hands-on experience with over 100 organizations that were trying to reinvent themselves. The result is an amazing series of eight sequential steps that lead to the landing of an effective change. These steps are so clear, so defined and so well thought out that one easily recognizes their wisdom and usefulness in business, or even in politics.
The firs four steps enable the breaking through of the status quo. They are: establishing a sense of urgency, creating a guiding coalition, developing a vision and strategy, and communicating the change vision.
The fifth through the seventh step introduce new practices. They are: empowering employess, generating short-term wins and consolidating gains to produce more change.
The last step, a step that most companies try to take first, is the institutionalizing of the new approaches in the corporate culture.
Kotter also shares the pitfalls of not taking each step, the qualities of successful companies and the mental habits leaders possess (or should acquire). Inspiring. |
