Robert W. Jacobs
Real Time Strategic Change
How to Involve an Entire Organization in Fast and Far-Reaching Change
Berrett-Koehler, 1997
What's inside?
Why do so many change efforts fail? Maybe because the people most affected by them aren’t involved.
Recommendation
Consultant Robert W. Jacobs walks you through his "Real Time Strategic Change" program, which, he explains, has been successfully implemented in numerous companies and organizations. He discusses how and why it works, and points out why other commonly used change strategies don’t. Although the book achieves its mission nicely, it gets bogged down by continuous, detailed examples of each step in the process, which provide little in the way of illumination. His excellent guidelines for change still manage to shine through. getAbstract recommends this book to all those who are or will be involved with implementing individual, group or organization-wide change.
