📢 Attention Change Agents: Master the Art of Transformation with Charting Change!
As a Human-Centered Change and Innovation professional, I’ve seen firsthand how often brilliant initiatives falter because they neglect the most critical element: the people. That’s why I created the Human-Centered Change methodology and the Change Planning Canvas™ — a collaborative, visual approach to making change stick.
I’m thrilled to announce that the Second Edition of my best-selling book, Charting Change: A Visual Toolkit for Making Change Stick, is now available for the incredibly low price of just $17.99 for the softcover (FREE shipping worldwide) and eBook versions directly from my publisher! Don’t miss this opportunity to acquire an essential toolkit that will transform how you lead.
🛠️ Your Benefits: A New and Expanded Toolkit for Success
The Second Edition isn’t just a reprint; it’s a major expansion, born from user feedback and the accelerating pace of today’s business environment. When you grab your copy, you are investing in a comprehensive, practical guide that will help you beat the painful 70% change failure rate.
1. Expanded Coverage on Critical Modern Topics
I’ve added four new chapters to equip you for the complex, interconnected challenges of the 21st-century organization:
- Architecting for Change: Learn how organizational design and business architecture work together to create a flexible, resilient structure, rather than just forcing change onto a rigid system.
- Systems Thinking: Understand that change doesn’t happen in a vacuum. You’ll gain a holistic view of your organization as a complex system, allowing you to anticipate and manage ripple effects.
- Digital Transformation: Get a clear roadmap for executing successful digital shifts that are human-centered—focusing on customer and employee experience, not just the technology.
- Building a Continuous Change Culture: Move beyond one-off projects and discover how to hard-wire organizational agility into your DNA, making your company a learning machine ready for the future.

2. Access to the Core Change Planning Toolkit
Every book purchase grants you a complimentary Basic License to the Change Planning Toolkit™! This is invaluable, providing you with access to 26 of my 70+ frameworks and visual tools as downloadable, large-format PDFs, including:
- The Change Planning Canvas™: A single, collaborative visual tool that gets everyone literally on the same page for discussing and planning the variables that influence your change effort.
- Visual Guides and Worksheets: Practical, easy-to-use frameworks to visualize the current state, envision the desired state, identify benefits, and segment your audience.
3. Practical, Collaborative, and Visual Execution
Charting Change is designed to be a field guide, not a theoretical text. You will learn how to:
- Drive Buy-in and Alignment: Use visual, collaborative techniques to draw out hidden assumptions and landmines early, ensuring stakeholders are aligned and committed.
- Measure and Manage Readiness: Employ new visual tools, like the Organizational Agility Framework, to effectively assess your team’s and organization’s readiness for change and transition.
- Overcome Resistance: Learn practical strategies for identifying and working with the people side of change, turning passive resistors into active supporters.
- Build a Common Language: Establish a shared vocabulary and vision for change implementation across your entire organization, increasing the likelihood of success.
For less than the price of lunch, you can acquire the blueprint for successful, human-centered change. Stop betting on the 30% chance of success and start charting your path to transformation today!

Don’t plan a change effort by starting with a blank Project Charter but instead get everyone literally all the same page for change. Using the Change Planning Toolkit employs more modern ways of working instead of legacy methods and by design will lead to increased buy-in, alignment and momentum towards your change or transformation goals.




“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
