Reviews for Deep Change

I read this for a leadership class. I found most of it unconvincing and irrelevant to me as a leader of my organization. Having said that, I could imagine that this framework might be helpful to middle managers within large bureaucratic organizations.

I found this slightly more self-helpy than other books I've read on leadership, but nonetheless it is an easy and interesting read. At its heart is the interesting idea that if you want to change something around you, you have to look at what you need to change within yourself. Also central is the idea that we are either engaging in change or accepting the slow path to death. I didn't like this idea, as I don't think organisational flows and patterns are this simplistic. Nonetheless, I would recommend this book because of it is a quick and easy read, not overly burdened with leadership theory, and there is enough in it to provoke thought and reflection.
