“My wish is that by reading Reimagine Change, you truly do reimagine change — in all facets of your life. May it bring you peace of mind, as well as the purpose and passion to coach yourself and others through the personal challenges and opportunities that exponential change presents.”
As Lancaster declares: it’s time to reimagine change. This book is intended to expose the human impact associated with continuous change in the workplace, and provide compassion and emotional optimism to liberate you — as an aspiring change leader — to shift in a more positive direction.
Remember with change comes opportunity. The more open, adaptive and tough you are to change, the more opportunities you will have access to. However, when the fear alarm is sounding, it makes it rather challenging to focus on future possibilities.
The change capability coach shares a six-step framework for personal transformation, workplace resilience and leading through change. You can escape change fatigue, build resilience and awaken your creative brilliance. No longer should you have to grapple dealing with seemingly never-ending change expectations in business and beyond.
Research suggests leadership burnout begets employee burnout. The onus is on you, fair or not, to take ‘ownership and make damn sure that you are resilient, ready and resourceful to lead yourself through change’. It’s a must-read for anyone looking to become strong, ready and resourceful.
Ciara has written this book “as a support system, or toolkit, for you to draw upon and mould to suit your own needs and desires. My hope is that you will use these insights to launch yourself towards progress and potential fulfillment”.
