4.0 out of 5 stars
Important advice for management, April 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Resistance: Moving Beyond the Barriers to Change (Paperback)
Today's corporate managers will be in charge, at least once & probably many, many times during their tenure, of major changes in policy, strategy, & practice. Unfortunately, more often than not, these changes fail to accomplish some or all of their objectives. In this brief book, Pritchett explains why employees resist change and lays out several novel & effective methods to meet their resistance head on and win them over to the change effort (He also addresses the "troublesome few" who absolutely refuse to accept change, & how to best marginalize them and their attempts to stop the change). All employees will benefit from the lessons in "Resistance," but any manager in charge of a change effort **must** have this book to help him/her overcome the barriers standing in the way of the new & improved organization that will result from the change.
