Synopsis

Change is at the core of human essence. The simplest definition of change is to make different. Human essence isn't so simple to define. Aristotle referred to it as to ti esti, "the what it is" As such, change makes different what is.
Many experts now assert the number one task of leaders is simply to manage change. Yet managing change is anything but simple. Leading change is even more difficult. Maximizing value in this environment requires leadership-and not yesterday's authoritarian style of leadership, but leadership at a higher level that connects with both the heart and the mind.

About the Author

Brian Strobel's Leading Change From Within recognized by three leading national book awards for 2015.

From the Inside Flap

Sociologists estimate there to be eleven million middle managers in the United States. It's easy to substantiate this number much higher. The latest census shows about fifty-one million workers aligned to management, professional and related occupations. Of these, slightly more than one million are in the role of chief executive. It follows the remaining fifty million are in a role with some decision-making capacity, but don't have ultimate authority. Research indicates as much as 90% of this group claims to be unprepared to deal with change. These professionals seek to accomplish their work while accounting for technology advances, globalization, and an increasing emphasis on lower costs and sustainability. And they do so in an environment of constant change.
