REPORT


“It is easy to advocate a systemic approach to change but another to actually do it. The all-too-familiar chants for the ‘top to drive change’ really say that we have no theory of change, let alone tools that can actually help people along the journey. Years of in-depth research with leading companies have given Roth and DiBella a rare opportunity to develop and test ideas in practice. Here you will find a rare combination of insight and usefulness.” —Peter Senge, Senior Lecturer, MIT Sloan School of Management, USA, and author of The Fifth Discipline: The Art & Practice of The Learning Organization (2006) “The book provides a much needed and fresh perspective on how today’s leaders can not only change their own organizations but proactively change other organizations they interface with. The book clearly should be a must read for any leader (ie, private, public, or not-for-profit) who is serious about successfully bringing change to fruition. Roth and DiBella have put together a ‘winner’ on the why, what, and especially HOW of changing organizations.” —Ronald R. Sims, Floyd Dewey Gottwald Senior Professor, Mason School of Business, College of William & Mary, USA, and author or co-author of 33 books and 90 articles “Amen to this book. Readers will experience a high definition portrayal of what it takes to facilitate systemic change at the level of the whole in thriving organizations. Leaders will feel the change in themselves when they make the necessary deep commitment to the health of the system based on the well documented models offered by Roth and DiBella.” —Roger Saillant, former manufacturing executive at the Ford Motor Company and Visteon “Books that emerge from the scholarship of practice are jewels for both the academic and management markets. DiBella and Roth have produced such a jewel that will contribute to both the scholarship and practice of the ever challenging task of organizational change.” —David Coghlan, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, and author of Doing Action Research in Your Own Organization “In a world where the only constant is change, Systemic Change Management is a must read for any executive or change leader. The five capabilities serve as a guiding framework that will stand the test of time and are married up with practical case examples of how leading companies managed complex change. This book is a perfect blend of research and practice. I highly recommend it!” —Douglas Ready, President, ICEDR and Senior Lecturer in Organizational Effectiveness, MIT Sloan School of Management, USA
