The authors bring to life the importance of culture: how very different it is from other elements of change management and how critical it is to take advantage of 'un-ignorable moments.' Their stories are compelling and memorable. --Jon Katzenbach, Senior Executive Advisor, the Katzenbach Center, coauthor of The Wisdom of Team, and coauthor (with Zia Khan) of Leading Outside the Lines The Moment You Can't Ignore brings us something we have not seen in a long time--a new set of ideas for leaders managing complex and continually changing organizations. This book provides vivid examples of how leaders can create 'superconducting organizations' capable of successfully managing the rip tides of change that threaten organizational identity, clarity about who is charge, and confidence that they can both adapt to and shape their future. Doing so requires the ability to know and leverage the moments in your organization you can't ignore. This book is a roadmap to being able to identify and leverage those moments. --David Thomas, Dean and William R. Berkley Chair of Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business, and coauthor of Breaking Through: The Making of Minority Executives in Corporate America
