The 7 levels of personal change
(English) This guide will help readers to achieve desired change in their thinking and action both in business and private life.
The author Rolf Smith, managing director of the School for Innovators, demonstrates how to accomplish positive individual change in all aspects of life. One can find out about habitual constraints and how to overcome them by thinking differently and focussing on (career) prospects.
The book therefore offers various psychological tools such as the Myers-Briggs typology to diagnose one’s type of personality as well as the Kirton adaption-innovation inventory, testing one’s openness for change. Furthermore, readers will gain better understanding of their social surrounding, learning to put themselves in the position of their colleagues and family members.
As an insightful business guide, the book also provides best case examples of international companies that have successfully incorporated Smith’s seven levels of change, inter alia Exxon, IBM, the Royal Bank of Canada and Texaco.
