{"product_id":"leading-continuous-change-bill-pasmore-9781626564411","title":"Leading Continuous Change: Navigating Churn in the Real World","description":"Most change efforts fail because most change methods are built to deal with single challenges in a nice, neat, linear way. But leaders know that today, pressures for change don't come at you one at a time; they come all at once. It's like riding a roller coaster: sudden drops, jarring turns, anxious climbs into the unknown. Drawing on his years of experience at the Center for Creative Leadership and Columbia University, Bill Pasmore offers a four-part model and four mindsets that allow leaders to deal with multiple changes simultaneously without drowning in the churn. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The first step, Pasmore says, is to \u003cb\u003eDiscover\u003c\/b\u003e which external pressures for change are the most necessary to address. The key here is to think fewer--step away from the buffet of possibilities and pinpoint the highest-impact options. Then you need to \u003cb\u003eDecide\u003c\/b\u003e how many change efforts your organization can handle. Here the mindset is to think scarcer--you have only so many people and so many resources, so how do you best use them? Once you've figured that out, it's time to \u003cb\u003eDo\u003c\/b\u003e--and here you want to think faster. Streamline processes and engage in rapid prototyping so you can learn quickly and cost-effectively. The last step is to \u003cb\u003eDiscern\u003c\/b\u003e what worked and what didn't, so think smarter--develop metrics, identify trends, and make sure learnings are disseminated throughout the organization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e For each stage of the process, Pasmore offers detailed advice, practical tools, and real-world examples. This book is a comprehensive guide to navigating change the way it happens now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Pasmore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1626564418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781626564411\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berrett-Koehler Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.70w x 0.90d","brand":"Bill Pasmore","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43939373908223,"sku":"9781626564411","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a777818e-aab7-494a-a24d-2f47ef5bc300.jpg?v=1681441113","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/leading-continuous-change-bill-pasmore-9781626564411","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
