5.0 out of 5 stars
Best book on change that I have read
This book is so wonderful that I have ordered copies for my clients. It is probably most useful to people with some background in Myers Briggs, but even without that information, it is a solidly written, insightful book. I highlighted so much that I had to have a triage approach -- highlighter, blue stars, and dog-earring!

Innovative use of MBTI information but what's the so what?
This book has a really neat idea - use the wagon trail west as a metaphor for the challenges people face in changing organizations. It then discusses how people with different Myers Briggs Types respond in these situations,and how when managing change you should take account of these different preferences. Trouble is that there are no clear implications from the book...

This review is from: The Challenge of Change in Organizations: Helping Employees Thrive in the New Frontier (Hardcover)
This book has a really neat idea - use the wagon trail west as a metaphor for the challenges people face in changing organizations. It then discusses how people with different Myers Briggs Types respond in these situations,and how when managing change you should take account of these different preferences. Trouble is that there are no clear implications from the book - I'm not sure what change managers should do differently as a result of the information provided by the authors. Where there are recommendations they are so bland that you could have got there without MBTI. Maybe, this is an example of stretching psychological type beyond where it is useful.
