Beschreibung
How does change succeed? The answer is simple and yet often not implemented: When not only measures, structures and processes are planned, but also the inner attitude towards the change topic develops. Theory U represents an effective method for change processes in organizations. This practical book gives a simple and understandable introduction to the thought model of Theory U. The author shows how these approaches can be used in coaching and consulting, in entrepreneurial action and leadership.
This book takes you from theory directly into practice: In addition to a concise introduction to the context and methods of Theory U, the focus is on concrete application in change processes. The processes for small, medium and large changes are described and the necessary skills - listening, writing, finding ideas - are deepened. Case studies and templates allow immediate application of the change method. Points of contact and interfaces to agile methods such as Working Out Loud and Design Thinking round off the consideration and facilitate access from completely different perspectives.
The book is aimed at all "change-makers" - coaches, consultants and managers - who are looking for a convincing framework and effective methods for their change projects.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
