Tremendous book

To my understanding, this is the softcover edition of Twelve Steps to Mastering the Winds of Change. In either edition, this is one of the ten best books I've ever read. I'm CEO of a medium sized company, and this is our bible for dealing with change. We had Erik Olesen come to our company and give a seminar based on the book, and I've never heard so much positive feedback about a workshop from the folks who work here. I've also found the book helpful in my personal life. I've given away many copies, and everyone who reads the book loves the book. I recommend it very highly.

This book really helped me handle change better. Excellent.

This is the best self-help book I've read in years. The first section addresses scores of different types of change that people may deal with, and provides tips for handling them. Then Mastering the Winds of Change covers twelve concrete, effective strategies for coping effectively with change and stress. What's particularly interesting and helpful are the real-life stories and tips from the forty peak performers the author interviewed. They include Walter Cronkite, Nobel prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Lillian Vernon, and many others. I've given the book to over 20 friends, and most of them liked it as much as I did. Reading this book really changed my life. Highly recommended
