Summary
John Kotter, the world's foremost expert on business leadership, distills twenty-five years of experience into Leading Change. A must-have for any organization, this visionary and very personal audiobook is at once inspiring, clear-headed, and filled with important implications for the future.

The pressures on organizations to change will only increase over the next decades. Yet the methods managers have used to strengthen their companies—total quality management, reengineering, right sizing, restructuring, cultural change, and turnarounds—routinely fall short. In Leading Change, Kotter identifies an eight-step process that every company must go through to achieve its goal, and shows where and how people—good people—often derail. Emphasizing again and again the critical need for leadership to make change happen, Leading Change provides unprecedented access to our generation's business master and a positive role model for leaders to emulate.

Great content, and the narrator has good energy. My biggest issue, and this applies more or less throughout the book, is that the lists (for various suggestions) are too long. Most of them are eight or nine items long, which makes it all but impossible from an audio-only standpoint. "Which takes us to step seven..." typically found me ignoring the next five minutes of audio trying to remember what the first six steps of this particular section were! Again, great principles and content. Not sure if there is an abridged version. If I come back to it, I'll likely try to listen in places where I can keep notes.
