Last month’s book was about meerkats and the rise and fall of your organization. This month, the subtitle is “changing and succeeding under any conditions,” and the fable is centered on penguins in the Antarctic.
The fable is an easy read, with significant metaphors for change, presented through Kotter’s model for organizational change, which I have spoken about for years. After the fable, there is a section that presents Kotter’s theory and how he came to write the book. If you are looking for an easy way in to this theory, this book will get you there.
