Publisher's Synopsis
Some reinventions are tiny, as when a tot decides on a new favourite food. Some are life-altering as when individuals choose to fight an addiction. In business, reinventions are required when the needs of the clients and/or inside teams are no longer being fully met.
Emotional reactions to the need for reinvention can range from negative to positive, from outrage to joyousness, from debilitating to exhilarating. When viewed negatively, reactions will follow a path very like the stages of grief; positive reactions will vary depending on the potential lasting benefits. Whether instigated or imposed, the amount of perceived control over the situation will always have a powerful effect on the emotional reaction to the reinvention process.
Confidence in our values, in our personal, professional or leadership capabilities are prime indicators of the attitude that will be applied to the need or desire for reinvention. For any reinvention to be successfully undertaken, whether personal, professional, or corporate, (and it cannot be stressed strongly enough) confidence must be buoyed, solidified, and shared.
Confident Reinvention: Personal, Professional, and Corporate Transformation examines the characteristics of and options of individuals facing disruptive situations and offers guidance to successfully navigating through transition periods.
I hope it provides you with food for thought.
