It is often claimed that 70% of organizational change efforts fail,
despite the popularity of linear change models. However these linear
approaches to change are often based on the premise that change is
predictable and straightforward, when actually change is complex, with
the 'human' element often changing the functioning of the organizational
system as a whole. **** Leading Change provides the practical
framework that allows leaders to actively engage with a complex adaptive
system to bring about successful organizational change. Supported by
academic research, and grounded with a range of examples and cases, the
book offers a genuine, viable alternative to existing approaches.
