While the first editions were excellent to begin with, these enhanced second editions of Beyond Change Management and The Change Leader’s Roadmap are even better with age. The additional years of experience even deepen the author’s articulation of the links between theory and practice. These books are outstanding resources for both organization change consultants and organization system leaders. Having a roadmap in common promotes the teamwork required for complex adaptive and continually evolving change efforts.

While the first editions were best-sellers in the Jossey-Bass/Pffeifer Organizational Change Practitioner Series, these second editions push the envelope even further with 30% new material, updated case examples, and even more worksheets.
Beyond Change Management reveals the key people and change process dynamics that must be facilitated for successful organization transformation. It has been touted as the first book to fully integrate human development and performance theories and practices with organizational systems theory, project management, and organizational development. Ken Wilber calls it, “one of the top two books ever written on an integral approach to business success.”
You will learn the Anderson’s Change Leadership Accountability Model, which outlines exactly what change leaders must attend to in order to succeed in transformation. You will learn their cutting edge strategies for building change capability in your organization, including how to establish strategic disciplines for change, like a strategic center of excellence, a strategic change office, an enterprise change agenda, a common change methodology, and a chief change officer role.
Beyond Change Management explains the human dynamics that occur during change, including stakeholder resistance, at a deeper, more fundamental level. It spells out what is required to minimize resistance and turn it into full-blown stakeholder commitment. It introduces you to a revolutionary new approach to organizational transformation – conscious change leadership – and reveals why you must first transform yourself and how you perceive, behave, and lead, in order to successfully transform your organization. It specifically outlines the mindset, strategies, and skills needed to be a successful change leader. Beyond Change Management provides profound insights about organizational culture, and why it is a critical component of all organizational and technological transformations.
This easy-to-read resource reveals why traditional change management and project management approaches work in some types of change, but not in transformational change. It provides an overview of Being First’s Change Leader's Roadmap methodology, which is described in detail in the companion volume, The Change Leader’s Roadmap.
This seminal book on conscious change leadership is a unique blend of thirty years of experience, theory, practice, and application, truly a resource like no other. See for yourself. Whether you are an executive, change sponsor, change project manager, change consultant, or student of change, you will learn proven methods for maximizing your results from change.
