Creating Contagious Commitment: Applying the Tipping Point to Organizational change is essential to anyone interested in the process of organizational change. It builds on the diverse resources in the Tipping Point computer simulation, which builds on lessons from public health, systems thinking and organizational theory.

Models of Change,
By pats (Durham, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Creating Contagious Commitment: Applying the Tipping Point to Organizational Change (Paperback)
The book addresses the issue of how to make change effective from a variety of viewpoints, including "war stories," a model of the different levers available to leaders, and an academic framework. I can also see that a workshop that lets one "twiddle the knobs" in Dr. Shapiro's model would be very helpful in understanding the interactions of the different levers for organizational change.

Easy reading, effe,
By Al Toews (Calgary, Alberta Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Creating Contagious Commitment: Applying the Tipping Point to Organizational Change (Paperback)
There are many books on org change theory but very few make understanding and applying the theories simple. Andrea does an exceptional job capturing in plain language this often neglected aspect of business change. Regardless of the change theory embraced, she demonstrates how to get this message to your target audience and build "contagious commitment" for your initiative.My client read the complimentary copy I gave her over the weekend and came back on Monday with 30 plus post-it page markers throughout! This book makes the introduction of change management and leadership simple.
