The winning difference daring to be different can make - insights into how organizations can stand out from the herd.

Suitable for managers who know that their organisations are stuck in a mindset that thrives on fashionable business theories that are no more than folk wisdom, and whose so-called strategies that are little more than banal wish lists, this title puts forward the notion that the application of uncommon sense is the secret to competitive success.

Anyone can talk about strategic business change. It's one of the hottest topics at management seminars and corporate watering holes. But what matters most is turning ideas into action - compelling an organization to apply its knowledge, skills, and vision to implement the strategic projects that make a difference. "Succeeding with change" is the first nuts-and-bolts guide to implementing strategies and using them to make things happen - turn inertia into action, guide management succession, develop new partnerships, renovate for excellence, and more. Drawn from the author's major consulting and operational assignments, together with candid interviews with CEOs who have made rapid, measurable change a priority in their firms.
