Managing Transitions: Making the Most of Change by William Bridges, Susan Bridges

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

I had to read this for work. I did learn some useful things, or had things I knew on a gut level articulated. So, this was useful and has given me a lot to think about. My big issue with it though is that it's very much written with a corporate model in mind. If you're looking to manage transition in a corporate setting, this book is more for you. But libraries play by different rules. I was able to adapt a lot of things, but skimmed sections on venture and takeovers and certain behaviors specific to the corporate sector. My other beef with this is that the book is full of quotes and scenarios from great thinkers and situations from history, but...

None of them are be women.
None of them are by anyone nonwhite. 

It's not good. I have a couple of books by non-corporate, nonwhite, nonmale people to supplement this.
