No one likes change. Too often it's viewed as something that must be
endured; something to 'get through' as fast as possible so that
everything can 'return to normal'. We need to change our view of change
and see it for the opportunity it really is. Step Change: The Leader's
Journey helps leaders to become gifted and skilful at moving through
the change process gracefully and productively.
Based on Joseph Campbell's 'hero's journey', Step Change: The Leader's
Journey offers a universal road map of change from step-1 (comfort
zone) through to step-12 (post-delivery inspiration). The journey
travels through four distinct phases of 'discover', 'decide', 'develop'
and 'deliver'. Step Change provides a proven formula for change, both
personal and organisational, which allows us to know where we are on the
Change Wheel and what to expect from each step, including what it looks
and feels like at each step. By identifying what causes change to fail
at each step as well as tools to navigate past the pitfalls and dead
ends that leave us stuck at a particular step or retreating to the
comfort zone, the change cycle can be understood and mastered.
The book provides the ideal structure for senior managers, human
resource managers, coaches and business leaders to follow in order to
embed change across their teams and organisation.
