Managing and Leading People through Organizational Change: The Theory and Practice of Sustaining Change through People Paperback – 3 May 2021

I really excellent book that combines a thorough grounding in social science theory with the latest research to provide practical business applications.It can be easy to become cynical about change efforts within business, but this book has a in-depth and applicable set of ideas and tools for how to manage the process effectively. I wouldn't necessarily look at this as solely a "change" related texts, it's one the best surveys of the mass of literature surrounding people and leadership.It was a key text on my MBA and has provided inspiration and provides really helpful information to address real business challenges.

it is the first time I have given a review that's how good this book is. Whilst there is some confirmation of existing knowledge here, it gives clarity on issues by grounding them in research and stretches one's knowledge/awareness further with new science.I like the blend of practical tips and good summary pieces at the end of each chapter.I train and coach in change mgmt and will be recommending this to all my delegates, managers and leaders.

It is a pleasure to read book in leadership and change management for the organizations. Book has a simple language to follow and it contains several case studies in the book. I would recommend to students and curious minds.

Excellent book for leading and managing change today

This is a wonderful book filled with practical insights grounded in a strong evidence base. Julie Hodges has a wealth of knowledge and experience in organizational change and conveys this in an easy to read manner throughout the book. With a focus on people and how they respond and adapt to change this is essential reading for anyone who hopes to implement sustainable change in organizations!

This book is a permanent fixture on my desk and as you can see from the picture, the book is well used and there are numerous book marks. This is because the book offers practical hints, tips and methodologies for leaders to consider when leading and managing change. So as someone who supports organisations through change and coaches managers it is my "go to text". The book explores all aspects of the change journey, from getting people ready for change to how to sustain new behaviours post change. The focus is on people, after all it isn't organisations that change, it is the people within them. Leaders need to understand the psychological and emotional journey that people go through and need to understand how to maximise engagement. This book shows the way!

Would highly recommend this book, as it does a great job of combining change management & change leadership in a simple and easy way, whilst ensuring that people stay at the centre of change. Itprovides different perspectives for people working in change ie building capability, culture for change and role of HR to enable a systemic look at how change can be enabled. The book provides practical examples, templates and case studies that makes a subject that is sometimes intangible for people leading, managing and experiencing change, into something that is doable.

I have read this book as part of my MBA module on Leading and Management people. The format is really simple and very effective with good examples and each section is broken down with key areas and a summary.It could almost be a step by step guide for managers. It will be my go to book for supporting staff who are new to managing teams.

Excellent book with tips and summaries and key points for every chapter. A book I wish I could by more copies and give to my friends who are leaders. It’s that good.

My no nonsense review: This book will take you through all the steps needed to lead and manage people through organizational change. Creating lasting change is arguably one of the most compelling challenges for organizations. Leadership action must be deliberate & systematic.We all know the world of work has changed dramatically, and that change stakeholders may have different or sometimes opposing perspectives about change and its impact on their work life. This book puts leadership of change within these much needed contexts.Get the book and enjoy the challenge!!!
