What People Are Saying
“There’s no denying it: Change is scary. But it’s also inevitable. In Charting Change, Braden Kelley gives you a toolkit and a blueprint for initiating and managing change in your organization, no matter what form it takes.” – Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and To Sell is Human |
|
“Thoughtful, thorough, and practical is the rare blend that Braden has achieved in this Change Management field guide. Much more than a series of tactics, Charting Change will explicitly, sequentially, and visually help users create a diverse set of experiences for stakeholders that will most certainly increase likelihood of success.” – Eric D. Hieger, Psy.D., Business Transformation and Change Leadership Practice Lead at ADP |
|
“As the pace of change speeds up, the market disruptions and resulting changes can be daunting for all. We all wish we could predict how change will affect our business, our market and our people. No matter what business area you come from, change affects us all and can produce great outcomes when managed well. In Braden Kelley’s newest book, Charting Change, he provides a terrific toolkit to manage this process and make it stick.” – Denise Fletcher, Chief Innovation Officer, Xerox |
|
“Braden Kelley and his merry band of guest experts have done a nice job of visualizing in Charting Change how to make future change efforts more collaborative. Kelley shows how to draw out the hidden assumptions and land mines early in the change planning process, and presents some great techniques for keeping people aligned as a change effort or project moves forward.” – Phil McKinney, retired CTO for Hewlett-Packard and author of Beyond the Obvious |
|
“Higher employee retention? Increased revenue? Process enhancements? Whatever your change goal, Charting Change is full of bright ideas and invaluable visual guides to walk you through change in any area where your organization needs it.” – Marshall Goldsmith is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Triggers, MOJO and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There |
The Opportunity
Innovation is about change, and organizations and individuals resist change. But, if you look around the business ecosystem, you’ll see that the companies that successfully innovate in a repeatable fashion and stay at the top of their industries have one thing in common – they are good at managing change.
Research shows that up to seventy percent of all change initiatives fail. Let’s face it, change is hard, as is getting an organization on board and working through the process. One thing that has been known to be effective is onboarding teams not only to understand this change, but to see the process and the progress of institutional change. Charting Change will help teams and companies visualize this complicated process.
The Concept
I developed the Human-Centered Change methodology and the Change Planning Canvas™ to enable leadership and project teams to easily discuss the variables that will influence the change effort and organize them in a collaborative, visual, human way. It will help managers build a cohesive approach that can be more easily embraced by employees who are charged with the actual implementation of change. Charting Change will teach readers how to use this visual toolkit to build a common language and vision for implementing change.

New for the Second Edition
The incredible popularity of Charting Change has allowed for the release of this second edition, which adds four new chapters on business architecture, systems thinking, digital transformation, and building a continuous change culture. In addition, there are two new guest expert contributions from Whynde Kuehn (Business Architecture) and Kate Hammer (storyFORMing). Together these new chapters and guest expert contributions expand the breadth and depth of Charting Change in support of the professors out there using it as a coursebook and for the change management professionals looking to learn more about planning and executing successful change or transformation initiatives.
