Why doesn't change stick?

You set big goals. Make a plan. Push forward. But then-momentum fades, resistance creeps in and old habits take over. Before you know it, you're right back where you started.

The problem isn't you. It's how we've been taught to change. We're told success requires dramatic overhauls, but real, lasting transformation comes from small, strategic shifts.

In Subtle Shifts, leadership expert Matt Cross reveals a counterintuitive truth: change isn't about working harder or making sweeping moves. It's about fine-tuning your focus, adjusting your mindset, and making micro-adjustments that lead to massive impact.

Drawing from psychology, business strategy, and real-world examples, Subtle Shifts will show you how to:

Sidestep the hidden traps that sabotage change. Use minor adjustments to drive major results-without burnout. Apply a simple, repeatable framework for lasting transformation.

If you've struggled to make change last-in leadership, career, or life-this book will show you a better way.

Stop chasing big change. Start making the subtle shifts that actually stick.
