Product Description
However necessary, organizational change is likely to be angst ridden and frustrating to the workforce. The Change Cycle will help readers to more resourcefully cope with change at work by helping them understand and predict their behavior and the behavior of others. Authors Salerno and Brock teach readers about six predictable and sequential stages that accompany any sort of change. This model is firmly grounded in recent discoveries in social psychology and cognitive neuroscience, but is presented in a straightforward, conversational style peppered with humor. Salerno and Brock describe how we think, feel and act during each stage, utilizing stories of common work/life transitions and how organizations have successfully dealt with the challenges accompanying the stages. They offer tools and success strategies needed for individuals at all levels, helping them understand what they ought to expect, from themselves and others, as they move through each stage of The Change Cycle.

Once again Solerno and Brock have created insight for approaching and dealing with change in our lives. This book not only speaks to those in the business sector, but also to individuals. The Change Cycle is a must read for those who are leaders in business, education and churches.

I love it when I find a book that is both easy to understand as well as profound. Salerno and Brock have offered an easy to understand model to help navigate through the sometimes not so friendly waters of change!
Even though this book is geared towards business, I have found it helpful in all areas of my life...I highly recommend this book to anyone exploring ways to deal with and understand change.
Powerful Resource Guide June 17, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
What a great read! This book has enough science to make the case for their 6 stage Change Cycle, and plenty of stories and illustrations to make it user-friendly. Their content combination of what to notice and consider vs what to do and when and how -- make for a powerful resource guide for those of us in the middle of workplace change after change.
I appreciated Salerno and Brock's guidance about thoughts, feelings and behaviors to watch for in each stage and how to interpret their meaning and intentions. I need all the 'how-to' help I can get, and this book laid out for me a sequence of good management and communication strategies in a way that I can understand and now begin to implement to help others.

I rarely spend my money on books about work, but this one was recommended by a colleague familiar with the trials and tribulations I am experiencing at the office. I have to say that I am glad I read it! Salerno and Brock present perspective and insights on change that resonated with me. I have found The Change Cycle model to be an amazing tool that is easy to understand and easy to apply to my situation and then be able to communicate about it with others. I am already using it successfully to build bridges within my consulting practice area.The Change Cycle: How People Can Survive and Thrive in Organizational Change
