Champions of Change: How to harness your people power to sustain any change you lead

by Sue Webster

Overview

HAVE YOU BEEN TRUSTED TO LEAD A CHANGE PROJECT, BUT YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT WHETHER IT WILL SUCCEED?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO UNDERSTAND A KEY ELEMENT THAT DRAMATICALLY INCREASES YOUR CHANCES OF SUCCESS?

Change management programs offer great promise, but often fail to deliver. With 20 years' experience across dozens of change projects in many

industries, Sue Webster has identified one common but usually overlooked element that makes all the difference: a team of change champions.

In this short and accessible guidebook, Sue explains:

• what change champions are
• how to select and support them
• why you need them as part of your change ecosystem.

Sharing practical anecdotes from her own experiences, she lays out a clear map for you to follow to create a successful champions community.
