<p><strong>'Hughes’s book is destined to become a seminal text in the field of leading and managing change. Not only does he capture all of the main themes and issues associated with change in a highly reader-friendly format, he also seriously debunks the "business" of change in both an intellectual and entertaining way. Students will love this book!'</strong><br /><em>James McCalman, Professor of Leadership Studies, Portsmouth Business School, University of Portsmouth, UK</em></p><p><strong>'The fields of leadership and change have been waiting for <em>Managing and Leading Organizational Change</em>. This excellent book provides and inspires throughout, providing radically fresh perspectives on numerous aspects of managing and leading change for academic and practitioner audiences alike.'</strong><br /><em>Sarah Fidment, Subject Group Leader, Organisational Behaviour/Human Resource Management, Sheffield Hallam University, UK</em></p><p><strong>'There are many books on change management but this is a must-buy because of its emphasis on the lived experience of change and the centrality of organizational process, emergence and voice. The "one size fits all" solutions of the consultancies is made obsolescent by this sophisticated, contemporary approach and its apposite cases.'</strong><em>David Weir, Professor of Intercultural Management, York St John University, USA</em></p><p><strong>'A refreshing and welcome addition to the organizational change literature. This critical text challenges what we think we know about organizational change in an insightful, engaging and enjoyable text, a must-read for any scholar in this field of study.'</strong><em>Richard Jefferies, Lecturer in Management, University of the West of Scotland, UK</em></p><p><strong>'This exceptionally well-written book brings a much needed critical perspective to one of the most misunderstood issues in management. In challenging some of the most totemic figures and established ideas in the field Mark Hughes has written a book that I highly recommend.'</strong><em>Dennis Tourish, Professor of Leadership and Organisation Studies, University of Sussex, UK</em></p>
