Reviews

Making Change Happen has been enthusiastically received by business people from both large organisations and small businesses, by Jane's fellow consultants, and by academics in the field of change. Here's what they say:

• "In 'Making Change Happen' Jane makes implementing change both easy and accessible. She distils management consulting methodologies into simple and powerful truths. Uplifting, inspirational and exciting - this is the 'start here' button for anyone involved in business change. Change is possible, you can do it, today, and here's how."
  Robert Smithbury,
  Consultant and Business Owner, Precise Business Services
   
• "This book has taught me the difference between action and activity. I have learnt that things only get done by taking direct action and that sometimes it is too easy just to be active. Since reading this book, I find myself questioning "is this action or just activity?" I ask it of myself and my managers and I never leave a meeting without everyone being clear on what has to be done to make things happen. Like all the best things, this is surprisingly simple, but it has made a big difference to my company."
  Nigel Phillipps,
  Managing Director, Unity Information Systems
   
• "A book you'll wish you'd read before you last tried to make a change happen in your organisation - and will want to revisit before you try again"
  Jonathan Harker,
  Founding Director, Catalise plc
   
• "I really enjoyed this book. Having read business books in the past which are full of jargon and text, I found Jane's book interesting to read, full of energy and aesthetically beautiful: with Lizzie Everard's illustrations really bringing the content to life. Making Change Happen prompts the reader to reappraise the opportunities that arise."
  Karen Napier
  Director of Development, Southbank Centre
   
• "Although this book can be read in about an hour, you'll want to read it again and again. Its messages are clear and practical, because this is a book that is based on experience, tempered with reflection and insight."
  Dr Janet Smart
  Director BT Centre for Major Programme Management, Said Business School, University of Oxford
   
• "This book has immense practical application for all businesses. There are disciplines in it which will fundamentally improve organisational performance. Down to earth, straightforward and practical. Jane writes in a way that is both modest and highly compelling - a rare combination."
  Nick Bush
  Consultant
   
• "This book deals with change, focusing right where the action is - the conversations and interactions between people. Clear, punchy messages are brought to life with workplace scenarios we all recognise, and are written with an energy and verve that make these messages truly memorable."
  Rebecca Wallace
  Independent Learning and Development Consultant
