Making Sense of Change Management is the classic text in the field of change management. It is aimed at anyone who wants to understand why change happens, and what needs to be done to make change a welcome rather than a dreaded concept. However, this book is not a “one size fits all” simplistic panacea to all change, whatever the circumstances. Instead, it offers considered insights into the many frameworks, models and ways of approaching change and helps the reader to apply the right approach to each unique situation. Topics include:
Written for academics and professionals alike, Making Sense of Change Management identifies and offers explanations of all current models of change, as well as practical guidelines and examples showing the reader why change can go wrong – and how to get it right.

Praise for the first edition of Making Sense of Change Management
‘I commend it highly. It has a good coverage of relevant theoretical work while at the same time giving plenty of practical examples. It is written in an accessible style that engages the reader and it is full of useful ideas without being overly prescriptive or formulaic.’ Philip Sadler, author of a number of acclaimed business titles and former chief executive of Ashridge Business School
‘I really enjoyed this book. I like the straightforward approach, the inclusion of the author’s opinion and the insight provided by the case studies. This book will be very useful for those business managers in my organization who need to prepare themselves for tackling major organizational change.’ Andy Houghton, former Head of Organization Development, Retail Direct, Royal Bank of Scotland Group
‘There has long been a need for a readable, practical but theoretically under-pinned book on Change which recognized a multiplicity of perspectives. By combining the behavioural, humanistic, organizational and cognitive perspectives and by helping the reader make sense of what each perspective brings to understanding Change, this book should help students and practitioners. By linking in work on personality tests such as MBTI™ the book breaks new ground from a practitioner point of view not least because these tests are widely used in practice. I thoroughly recommend it.’ Professor Colin Carnall, Associate Dean, Executive Programme, Warwick Business School, University of Warwick
‘If you’re interested in successfully managing and leading change, then read this book! It not only covers change from both the individual and organizational perspective, but also increases the number of options available to you.’ Judi Billing, Director of IDeA Leadership Academy, Improvement and Development Agency
‘Change is a huge thing wherever you work. The key is to make change happen, and make it happen well – with everyone on side, and everyone happy. This book provides an extremely stimulating and accessible guide to doing just that. There are a few people at the Beeb who could do with this. I’ll definitely be placing copies on a couple of desks at White City.’ Nicky Campbell, Presenter Radio Five Live and BBC1’s Watchdog
‘This book is a great resource for managers thrown into the midst of change, who need to gain understanding of what happens when you try to make significant changes in a business, and how best to manage people through it. The authors have tackled a complex topic in a lively and engaging way, leading readers through the maze of theory available and offering just the right amount of practical advice.’ Andy Newall, former Organizational Effectiveness Director, Allied Domecq plc
‘This impressive book on change is an essential read for any professional manager who is serious about getting to grips with the important issues of making change happen.’ Dr Jeff Watkins, former MSc Course Director, Management Research Centre, University of Bristol
‘This practical handbook, combining contemporary management theory with very practical suggestions, is an indispensable tool for any manager involved in change processes. And aren’t we all…’ Adriaan Vollebergh, Director, Corus Metal Services Europe
‘This is a book which lives up to its title. By combining a guide to the ideas of key thinkers on change and useful tips for making change happen, it really does provide a toolkit to help us to make sense of change. It is useful to see a focus on the individual, team and organizational levels, and in particular, on the role of the leader in the change process. It is written in a way that makes the book interesting to read both at length as well as to dip into.’ Richard McBain, Director of Studies Distance Learning MBA, Henley Management College
