Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. When Liz Hoole, a free-spirited liberal from the Midwest, marries into a conservative Quaker family, she knows that raising children in compliance with Quaker values will be challenging. Twenty-five years later, she still feels like she?s falling short of expectations. Fortunately, her faith and her friends in the small, rural North Carolina town of Cedar Branch keep her strong. After her best friend?s politically powerful father dies, Liz stumbles upon secrets from the past that threaten to unravel the current harmony in Cedar Branch, a town with a history of racial tension. As she researches more and eavesdrops on gossip at the Quaker Café, where everyone meets each morning, Liz soon discovers the truth about an injustice that she cannot reveal to anyone?not even her husband. Surrounded by a cast of richly drawn Southern characters, Liz learns that even good people can make bad choices. Now, she must decide whether she has the strength to bring a past wrong to light, despite the consequences. Revised edition: This edition of The Quaker Café includes editorial revisions. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. It's ironic that while most people know what conditions enable change to be effectively managed, these straightforward needs are often missed. The intent gets the attention; the details of execution are forgotten. Yet the elements are simple: listen to the stakeholders, learn about the issues, lead with clarity and involvement, align systems, communicate relentlessly, follow-up and course-correct.Consider who will be most affected and then explore their issues, needs, and ideas. You'll learn fast; you'll have answers to your own questions; and you'll have the raw material for a plan to address the issue, solve the problem or lead the change. This can be done on a small, local scale, through informal conversations. Or it can be a much broader effort using meetings, surveys, social media, or a combination of methods.And then make it all work through sustained follow-up. Never assume that things will happen as planned. Is the change working? What needs to happen to make it work better? What's working well and what's not? Assess progress; fix it; keep listening, learning, and leading.This book is built around resources that the author has developed and used in many years of consulting and teaching about the management of change. The first section of each chapter includes guidance, ideas, and short case studies. These are followed by a set of resources, including checklists, templates, presentations, tactics, Q&As, talking points, and emails. Select and adapt the ones that meet your needs. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Changemaking Checklists is a toolkit for planning, leading, and sustaining change. The 58 lists, tools, and templates in this book are designed to guide planning and action. They help ensure that key steps are taken, and flag important issues that should be recognized and addressed. A companion volume to the author's earlier book Changemaking, the new work provides a comprehensive set of tools that complement and extend those in the first. These materials are organized in sections that correspond to the author's framework for successful management of change: clarity, measurement, engagement, resources, alignment, leadership, and communication. A checklist itself isn't a plan or a strategy; it doesn't assure success. But it can play a key role in educating about opportunities, tactics, and pitfalls; assisting those involved in change to assess progress; and providing starting-points for development of plans and tools for implementation and assessment. Of course, one size doesn't fit all: the materials should be adapted as needed to make them fully relevant to the culture and structure of your organization. Brief case histories illustrate the role of the core factors in managing change. Additional chapters provide guidance and resources on the use of collaboration technology and social media; and on conducting effective meetings-whether face-to-face or technology-enabled. The focus throughout is on tactics and execution, with the aim of providing templates and models that can be adapted to a variety of situations. The Changemaking Checklists (2015) is described by Kirkus Reviews as a] coherent, concise look at the elements that go into new business initiatives . . . and a] worthwhile addition to a manager's bookshelf. Jim Shaffer, Leader of The Jim Shaffer Group, described it as an] outstanding compilation that fits beautifully in the lean standard work and checklist mindsets. Brian Grant, Chairman of MCN, noted that the book offers . . . indispensable ideas, tools, and guidance on the human side of change - including what NOT to do.…
