Summary

The central premise of The Change Cycle is that there is a universal change process-a cycle that is sequential and predictable-and knowing this process will help people cope with change more effectively. The model is based on the authors' 20 years of global consulting experience and their successful change management program of the same name, which has been taught to over 500,000 professionals in over 100 companies and government agencies. The book identifies and then provides detailed exercises for achieving the personal transformations necessary to navigate each stage of change. Explanations are grounded in empirical science but free of scientific jargon.
