One of the most popular books on change management, Leading Change introduces a framework for successfully changing your company, and then covers each step in detail, with lots of examples and anecdotes. Finally, Kotter finishes by postulating that the corporations of the future will need to be driven by lifetime learners, and states that industries like Tech and Professional Services are models for how these people operate.
This was a good guide to... ahem... leading change, and introduces a framework that you'll probably see if you get wrapped up in a change program. It reminded me a bit of some of the other books I've read, especially [b:Influencer: The Power to Change Anything|914211|Influencer The Power to Change Anything|Kerry Patterson|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1393217540s/914211.jpg|899306]. Worth a read if change programs are part of your job description.

Read in a book club with my boss. This book was fantastic- straightforward, with real techniques and lots of ideas threaded throughout the concepts. This book empowers any level employee to suggest and make changes. Highly recommend to anyone involved in change efforts (small or large) in their workplace.
Kotter proceeds to explain his eight-stage process of creating major change that consists in (1) establishing a sense of urgency (2) creating the guiding coalition (3) developing a vision and strategy (4) communicating the change vision (5) empowering broad-based action by getting rid of obstacles and changing systems or structures that undermine the change vision (6) generating short-term wins (7) consolidating gains and producing more change (8) anchoring new approaches in the culture.
I don’t think the book actually adds anything more than his article ‘Leading Change’ published on the Harvard Business Review a year before.
