"External changes can lead to periods of transition. These can be losses in relationships, or changes in your home life, work, career or finances and/or personal changes. Internal shifts such as spiritual awakenings, psychological insights and/or changes in self-image can also result in periods of transition.
Transition periods have three parts-an ending (of something), an in-between space and a new beginning. Each period or phase can be difficult, but the in-between space can often be the most confusing. We want to rush through it to the other side, when most often we need to just sit with it and see where it takes us.
If you are in the midst of some life change or feel unsettled, anxious, or just plain old 'discombobulated', you may be in a period of transition.
You are okay. What you are feeling is normal. You are not going crazy. Read this book to help find your way. It is easy to read and written in a manner that is both engaging and informative"
"I picked this up after a seminar I attended on change management. The speaker highly recommended this book. I found the basic concept of change as it compares against the grieving process understandable. I just got a little bored with the repetition and exercises in the book. Good reference material for a manager that is leading a company or department undergoing transition."
"This will be a humbling read if your company is standing on their laurels rather than adjusting to the times. It also offers practical advice about change management through the telling of true stories."
