HBR's 10 Must Reads on Change Management (including featured article "Leading Change," by John P. Kotter)

I found this book to be super helpful. I have read other books on change management, and this books adds so much more insight, examples, processes and highlights the priorities that leaders need to pay attention to when change is happening. I highly recommend this book

This book was recommended to me by a friend who has had a successful career as a change management consultant, after working for IBM for years. There is an almost identical book which has a Chinese painting on the cover and contains 8 of the 10 articles in this book. Make sure you don't order both! This is a great read for anybody interested in formulating a structured approach to implementing change.

If you’re looking for change management strategies, this book has the complete gamut of methods and tips. Very textbook as expected and one that you can jump around to the articles that apply most to your needs.

As all of the books of the HBR's 10 Must Read, this book is an excellent collection of strategic articles of the Change Management, full of practical examples and cases. A real Must Read! So, read it! Recommended to every manager unhappy with the current situation and results of his/her organization and team.

Book is to the point, which is what I like rather than reading thru jargon. Great topics and insight. Use this book to interview one of the managers at work. Though the manager did not know about the book or the principles directly, his responses aligned with what was in the book. Will order the set.

I have come to appreciate HBR's approach to concise, research-based articles. I am working on an applied research project relating to managing major organizational transitions and there is plenty of great information in this collection. This is very readable whether you are doing research or just looking to refresh some basic change strategies.

It is just as advertised: great articles with ideas that even though 25 year old, are as fresh and sound innovative today compared to many modern texts.

Here we have HBR re-purposing Harvard Business Review articles on change. Virtually all were written by experienced and respected academics. While I found some of the articles a little dry and most had an academic orientation, I found the book quite useful. I trust senior executives will also find it helpful (along with Leverage authored by John Childress). HBR's On Change Management has more theoretical leanings while Leverage has more of a practitioner's point-of-view. Both books compliment each other. John Kotter's article is a classic. His work in the field of 'change' has proved ground-breaking. Michael Beer's article 'Why Change Programs Don't Produce Change' is excellent. I concur whole heartedly with Beer's conclusion about putting 'focused energy on the work itself' as opposed to relying so much on systems and structure as the lever for change. Overall, an important book for those charged with oversight responsibilities in successfully implementing organizational change. Bill Wiersma, Author--The Power of Professionalism

I really recommended it. If you manage to read it, it can be a game changer for you and your team.

Must read for all executives and consultants
