Changing and Succeeding Under Any Conditions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time a penguin colony lived happily on an iceberg, with no thought of changing their lives \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then one day one curious penguin discovers the iceberg is melting and risks breaking up. Fred tells Alice, a member of the council of leaders, and together they try to persuade the others of the threat and the need for rapid change in how the tribe lives. Should they believe Fred? Should they tell the rest of the colony and risk panic? What are the options?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The heroes of this fable \u2013 the curious penguin, the pragmatic manager, the leader, the ladies\u2019 favourite, the ancient naysayer and the teacher \u2013 discuss resistance to change, heroic acts, apparently insurmountable obstacles and ways to overcome them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the pioneering work of John Kotter, leadership and change guru at Harvard Business School, this modern fable has helped thousands of individuals and businesses through its 8 step change model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Published to mark the 10th anniversary of the original title, this new edition adds new illustrations to the original text, a revised epilogue and a Q&A with the author to discuss the learnings of the past decade.

Funny and insightful, it reveals a lot about our resistance to change and is a thoughtful companion at a time when great change is all around us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
