Change Management for Sustainable Development – a workbook

I wrote this workbook for the IEMA, whose members are largely in-house environmental specialists, external environmental consultants, or environmental policy-makers.

The book assumes that they know about sustainable development, and that what they need to understand better is the process of organisational change.

It contains bits of theory that I and my clients have found useful over the years – if it wasn’t useful, it didn’t get in.

It really is a workbook – there are boxes you can fill in, and people can also download pdf versions of some of the exercises from IEMA’s website, to use with colleagues.

You can buy it here.

I’d love to hear what you think about it.
