Leaders on Change,
By A Customer
This review is from: On Leading Change: A Leader to Leader Guide (Paperback)
I'm a fan of the whole Leader to Leader series. This book presents luminaries such as Peter Drucker, Peter Senge, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, William Bridges, Frances Hesselbein, and Jon Katzenbach. They address in short simple chapters the challenges of leading change. Who could provide you with a better supply of insight and inspiration?I first read the sample chapters on the Drucker Foundation Web site. Now I'm sharing this book with my friends and children.
