Succeeding with Change

Rather than focusing on the theory of what strategy is, what it can do and so on, this book actually gets to grips with how to implement strategies and then use them to make things happen. Many organisations get trapped into talking about what they are going to do and what they want to achieve without applying their knowledge and skills to make the necessary changes. Succeeding with Change brings fundamental guidance on each stage of making a strategy work - who takes responsibility, how to communicate change, building teams and leaders. With a 14-step framework this book offers a far-reaching support to senior managers who are tired of waiting for the change of momentum to carry things along and are waiting to take action.
