Leading for Change is a wonderful resource for individuals across the work spectrum. Leading ourselves, teams, and organizations requires different strategies, but share many core principles. Kathryn provides context and rationale for the aspects of change management while also drawing from her personal experiences and wealth of professional expertise to illustrate each point with examples. I found her recommendations of tools and resources invaluable and have since integrated the stop, start, continue framework into my work.
