Book Description
When a community of animals living in a once peaceful, stable pond find themselves confronted with the awareness of an ever changing world, they become afraid, indecisive, panicky, and quarrelsome. They soon realize that only when they are willing to undertake reasonable risks, and consider changing their thinking, are their individual and organizational capabilities awakened.
The animals soon learn that new thinking brings about new and positive results, making the process of change empowering and exciting.
Change in organizations, whether in the workplace, community groups, or even in family life, is inevitable. While some welcome change and thrive on the opportunities it presents, many find it difficult to move ahead, imagining the worst along a road filled with insurmountable risk. Change management can be a challenge even for those with experience, as each case is unique.
But for managers, leaders, human resource professionals and anyone seeking tools for themselves and their teams, the story of The Pond provides insights, and tools to assist in maintaining a “pristine pond” or in transforming a “stagnant swamp.” Change can be successful when there is hope in the midst of uncertainty. Through learning how to look at things anew you can truly awaken your potential.
