Description
Book SynopsisMost of us have experienced change being ‘done’ to us – badly. It really doesn’t have to be that way!
This book is for managers who have tried to deliver business change but felt frustrated and disempowered by the experience. It is for people who want to stand up and make a difference igniting and inspiring successful change but don’t know where to start. This book is a complete toolkit for aspiring Change Superheroes!
Lucinda Carney C.Psychol uses her decades of business experience to:
· explain the repeated, human causes of failed change
· uncover the secrets to delivering sustainable change
· provide prospective Change Superheroes with the confidence to deliver their own successful business change
· share case studies; downloadable tools and real-life examples of successful change.
Let’s change the way we do Change!
Trade ReviewThis was full of useful, practical tips but grounded in research - it does a good job of dealing with the real world not a theoretical business-school or unicorn view of the world.
It's also an easy and enjoyable read - plenty to make you think without being dry. Overall I found it encouraging and positive and it maybe rekindled a belief that real change is possible to achieve.

A great read for some change thinking! 📚
Love the format of the book, especially the summaries & mini case study examples after each chapter!
Must say - it’s a great book for those who want to make a real difference in their organisation & bring creditability to HR & the wider business!
