Change Management Productivity

"If you are a business manager, who suspects change management could help them deliver outcomes for your organisation, but you are not sure how to get the best from it, this should be your next read.

Busy leaders (so, essentially all of them) can read this 2-hour read in one sitting, but should expect to find themselves thinking about the learning for weeks. 

Naomi Jones-Black has managed to distil years of change management know-how into something that feels both practical and personal. She’s asking you to go slow to go fast, if only while reading this book and I agree, do it right first, then do it fast.

The scenarios and recommendations in each chapter feel and sound real because they are. The tips are clear because the author knows from experience what works and she wants to help you get the most out of your efforts, for everyone’s sake.

This book proves that important things can also come in small packages and you don’t need 500 pages to make a point. Each chapter has those key points neatly organised for you to go back to when change things get hard.

Especially the chapters in the second half, that discuss productivity, governance and the context of change, are essential for leaders to understand if they need their change to succeed.

And if you can’t spare the 2 hours to read it? Definitely read this book."
