Change is not only inevitable, but it’s constant. Now, more than ever, how we work, the way we live, even how long we live are changing at a rapid pace. Only those who can embrace everything that’s going on and reinvent themselves will survive and thrive.
The Power to Change teaches you how to do just that. Award-winning author Campbell Macpherson has designed the book so it give us the power to change – to make the most of changes that are thrust upon us, to seek out and embrace change that will help us grow and improve our lives for the better.
The economic, social and personal impact of COVID-9 has been profound and it has changed our world in ways that we are yet to grasp fully.
Yet change – even good change – is tough. Most of us feel utterly powerless when confronted by it, but it doesn’t have to be this way. The Power to Change will help you harness change to make it work for you. It enables you to tackle difficult situations and see new opportunities. The book does more than simply enable you just to cope with change – it gives you the tools and approaches to embrace and celebrate change.
As 2020 has shown us, change can also be swift – and inexorable. The way we live and work has been upended and this speedy pace has left many of us anxious about our future. The upheaval has been massive.
The international business advisor and keynote speaker says: “ … in the face of such dramatic disruption … we have the power to pause, reflect, reassess our priorities and identify what is truly important in our lives. And then we can change.”
Clearly written, practical and research-driven, Macpherson says the book is also about embracing change.
