Booklist Review

In this revised edition of a book published in 1989, Curzon takes managers through the process of leading an organization through change. In part 1, chapters on conceptualizing, planning, and preparing for change; managing individuals and controlling resistance; and implementing and evaluating change contain step-by-step guidance. A concluding chapter lists 15 key points for success. In part 2, a new series of 15 change scenarios related to budget cuts, cataloging backlogs, unruly students, outsourcing, accepting a wealthy donor's useless collection, and other common situations provides very practical advice. The real-world approach makes the book a valuable addition to the professional collection. --Susan Awe Copyright 2006 Booklist
