Book Description
When do your employees resist change? They resist change when they don't understand the changes that are taking place, they see little or no perceived benefit of doing things differently, or they do not feel involved. Which is why employees who will be affected by a transformation must effect the changes. Realizing that anything short of total employee involvement in the change process jeopardizes success, this book emphasizes that it is the responsibility of every employee to act as a change agent. Learn how to go beyond piece meal incremental changes, beyond reengineering, beyond the limited idea of change to encompass a whole systems approach to creating and sustaining a competitive advantage. Through a revolutionary, integrated, employee-oriented leadership philosophy, this book illustrates how to transform an organization by tapping into the full potential of every employee.
