 Common sense wrapped up in a children's story...for professional adults. November 17, 2008
I share most of the sentiments other negative reviewers have expressed about the book. It's insulting to every employee's intelligence (if they have any), although it was a nice way to waste several hours (it took me about 15 minutes to read the book, but we spent hours having meetings and group talks about it led by management). Just thinking about it now makes me glad to be out of the corporate realm and in a small private office.
Everything in this book should come as common sense to any employee worth their paycheck. And it's not necessarily the right way of going about things, although having a positive attitude always helps you out regardless of what situation you're in. But blindly following change does not always make you a good employee, and that's where this book steers its readers wrong. Having respect for your supervisors is important, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't question their ideas & motivations, or provide feedback on the changes they've chosen to implement. Believe it or not, this can be done respectfully and intelligently - this book makes it seem as if any protests you make or concerns you express just translate to 'heming and hawing', so quit your whining and get back to work. This kind of black and white outlook damages professional credibility and relationships and really just makes the environment an unpleasant one to work in.
That said, I would love to see what the writers from The Office could do with this material.
 I'm Surprised! November 13, 2008
I am surprised that more people are not raving about this simple book that uses simple concepts that can be so amazingly powerful. Recognizing how we deal with change, and really understanding what that means in our lives, can be one of the most powerfully moving experiences, and life altering events.
I was so impressed with it at work, I made my whole extended family (even those in Iran) read it. They all enjoyed it, and some even made significant changes in how they look at their lives as a result.
How do you handle change, and what can that mean for you? Read the book and find out - and share it with friends and family!
