Transform your organization with speed and efficiency using this insightful new resource
Incremental improvement is no longer sufficient in helping organizations navigate the complexity, uncertainty and volatility of today's world. In Change: How Organizations Achieve Hard-to-Imagine Results in Uncertain and Volatile Times, authors John P. Kotter, Vanessa Akhtar, and Gaurav Gupta explore how to create non-linear, dramatic change in your organization. You'll discover the emerging science of change that teaches us about how to build organizations - from businesses to governments - that change and adapt rapidly.
In Change you'll discover:
* Why the ability of organizations to deal with threats and take advantage of opportunities in the face of ever greater complexity and uncertainty is being severely challenged
* In-depth, evidence-based, actionable solutions for dealing with institutional resistance to change
* Case studies and success stories that describe organizations who have successfully built the ability to change quickly into their DNA

Perfect for managers, executives, and leaders at companies of all types and sizes, Change will also prove to be a valuable asset to other professionals who serve these organizations. This book is for anyone seeking a proven approach for delivering fast, sustainable and comprehensive results.
PRAISE FOR CHANGE
"Kotter's new book, Change, is a game changer. He and his co-authors provide deep insight into the misunderstood intersection between logical and psychological business transformation strategies. If you want your business to survive and thrive, this book is a must-read."
-Kelly S. King, Chairman and CEO, Truist Bank
"The background, history, and case studies show a new way of thinking and acting. The lessons are short, to the point, yet profound. This is a call to action for all who care to move from the ranks of management to be key leaders in their companies, industries, and communities."
-Douglas Williams, COO, HMS Holdings
"Just as they do in their consulting work, the authors of this book make the complex challenge of leading change accessible. It boils down the 'theory of change' into commonsense advice that is actionable and relevant-no matter if you are changing strategy, reconsidering structure, or simply trying to adapt at the speed of today's change. As we prepare for a post-COVID world, never has there been a time when harnessing the imagination and energy of employees has been more critical for companies that want to thrive in an environment that may look completely different than a year ago. This marvelous book can help companies prepare for this massive challenge...and opportunity."
