About this title

Synopsis

Every leader is at some point called upon to manage change—that vast, complex project that could be a game-changer for the organization. Imagine for a moment it’s your turn. Chances are you’ve been selected based upon your reputation, experience, and expertise. But implementing with excellence isn’t enough this time. You need your audience to see the value—and you need them to get on board. The Method and the Magic conveys our proven method that ensures the success of challenging organization-wide transitions. It’s a proven multi-disciplinary strategy integrating change management and communications, evolved from years of practical experience helping organizations navigate change successfully. Based upon common-sense principles, informed by the best thinking in our field and guided by knowledge of human behavior, it’s more than a method. Much more. There’s an element of magic that comes from knowing your audience, listening to their needs and being creative in how you reach them. Unlike many magicians, we’re willing to reveal in this book how we pull the rabbit from the hat—and share proven strategies to help you confidently lead people through change.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
