A focussed and innovative approach to change management.The model of change management based around ten winning conditions is applied in a number of situations:
* Acquisitions.
* New venture creation.
* Introduction of information systems.
* Turnarounds.
* Culture change.
The guidance is very useful in the field I work in as an Interim Manager/Consultant.

Drawing on their MBA executive teaching, research and consulting, the authors present a framework for rapid implementation of organizational change. They assert that the first 200 days of a major change initiative determines its outcome. Successful change calls for Winning Conditions: correct diagnosis of the change challenge; early development of shared understanding; enrichment of shared understanding; establishing a sense of urgency; creating a limited, focused, strategic agenda; rapid, strategic decision making and deployment; a human flywheel of commitment; identifying and managing sources of resistance; follow-through on changing organizational enablers; and demonstrated leadership commitment. Discussion and examples make this approach clear and applied. The book is very impressive in its scope and depth. It is meaty, absorbing and to-the-point.
