If you’ve listened to my latest podcast episode “Booking Business” you’ll know for the last several years I have been working with Twin Flames Studios as their VP of Publishing. I’m in charge of running the day-to-day operations of the audiobook division from taking (and closing) sales calls, to managing production schedules with authors, and even remote-directing authors who want to record their own books.
For the first time since joining the company, an author asked me if I’d narrate their entire book. Elisabeth White and I had a couple of conversations about it before I agreed to record “People Do Change.” Ultimately it’s about the leadership message she’s trying to put out in the world, and it aligns with my goals as a leader in Twin Flames Studios as well.
This is my first audiobook I’ve recorded from start to finish, and I’m thrilled to stand behind its message. Here is the brief summary from Audible, and I think you’ll see why:
They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
And if you believe people don’t change, then you would be right. In a world where instability is constant and exhausting, learning curves are endless, and transformation is the buzzword of the day, the challenge is actually this: people don’t like change.
This groundbreaking book turns the dog in that demoralizing axiom on its head. When leaders step up to create an organizational culture that encourages positive shifts, and team members realize how beneficial change can be, people do change . . . and for the better.
People Do Change offers an alternative approach. It explores the shift from traditional change management methodologies to a more human-centric approach, recognizing that successful organizational transformation hinges on the experiences, emotions, and engagement of the people who are part of it. You’ll explore techniques for making change endure by focusing on individual experiences and collective culture, and how to inspire your team with authentic, meaningful motivation that resonates on a personal level. By building a safe space for continuous adaptation, learning, and growth, your company can position itself to succeed in an increasingly volatile and uncertain business world.
Human-Centric Change Management places people at the core of change initiatives, acknowledging that sustainable progress occurs when your people are active participants rather than passive recipients of change. Whether you’re a seasoned executive, a leader navigating complex dynamics, or an enthusiastic newcomer full of fresh ideas, this book will guide you through leading change with empathy and effectiveness.
