The Effective Change Manager's Handbook is the official guide to the Change Management Institute (CMI) body of knowledge, The Effective Change Manager. It is explicitly designed to help practitioners, employers and academics define and practise change management successfully and to develop change management maturity within their organizations. A comprehensive learning resource, it includes chapters from esteemed and established thought leaders in the field. The book covers all aspects of change management theory and practice, including benefits management, stakeholder strategy, facilitation, change readiness, project management, and education and learning support. Presenting the whole change process, from idea to implementation, The Effective Change Managers Handbook offers practical tools, techniques and models to support any change initiative.
A very well-rounded book, that manages to take the reader through the basics to the more advanced topics of change management. It's pretty thick, but I am still impressed by its coverage, as the subject matter is very big. That is also its weakness, as to get the most out of this book, you either have to use it as a refresher or to follow-up on the relevant references the authors specifies (not everyone has a library like mine), which could be a bit time consuming. But in the authors defense, to remedy that critique, they would have had to make the book 5-6 times larger at least.
Anyway, if you are interested in the change management area, either as a newcomer or as an old hand, this book is well worth owning.
