The author clearly outlines seven dimensions of our lived experience that are so influential on our ability to create positive change. This is a great resource for individuals and organizations alike!" --Ariel Garten, Founder & CEO of Interaxon

--Brian Biro, author of Beyond Success and There Are No Overachievers
"The more things stay the same, the more they don’t! Everything is in a constant state of change...including YOU. Which is what makes this book so valuable. Drawing on his deep coaching and consulting experience, Michael Diettrich-Chastain provides insights, tools, and tips that are eminently effective and transformational."
--Bill Treasurer, bestselling author of Courage Goes to Work
"Michael Diettrich-Chastain provides both a concise and compelling "playbook" for managing change in both our personal and professional lives. I highly recommend this book for anyone charged with leading change in an organizational setting, or managing transitions in your personal life. Michael will challenge you to think differently and holistically, while providing the resources necessary to help you effectively manage change."
