Summary: ZEROS IN ON THE DRIVING FORCE UNDERLYING CHANGE.
Comment: This book explains the belief system of motivation and performance, based on the expectancy model, and shows how it can be implemented to create organizational change. The authors explain how the belief system helps to bring negative feelings to the surface. Using the belief system approach, they provide ways to identify underlying emotional problems and find solutions. A formula for managing change is presented, founded on five principles relating to individual understanding of the imperative to change, an understanding of what is expected of the person, and the individual and the manager's motivations to change.

The book describes applications of the belief system in a variety of work situations, including an organizational change initiative in AT&T's Business Communication Services. The author lays out twelve tips for implementing change. This is an insightful and useful contribution to the field of change management. Its focus on motivation is right on target, spotlighting what many writers skim over. Recommended!
