“If only trust were enough. But as Tod Bolsinger points out in Invest in Transformation, while trust is an important resource, it is most valuable not when it is stockpiled for personal security but when it is invested in transformation. For leaders who are willing to step courageously into adaptive challenges, Bolsinger provides a clear and concise (although certainly not easy) guide for developing the perspective and skill sets needed to effectively lead organizational change. This is a book I will return to again and again.”
“It has been said that 'Trust is built in drops and lost in buckets.' In his slender-yet-substantive book Invest in Transformation, Tod Bolsinger helpfully weds transformation and trust. Furthermore, he offers valuable counsel on how the two might be synced and mutually reinforcing. In an effort to be and to do better as a leader, I have found the work of Bolsinger to be invaluable. Along with many others, I am grateful for his practical, actionable insights on leadership and for his graceful, enjoyable prose.”
“The Practicing Change Series provides exactly the kind of help that busy leaders need in seeking to bring meaningful change to their organizations in the midst of the ongoing demands of day-to-day leadership. Concisely accessible. Imminently practical. Immediately actionable. And built on solid theory tested in the real world. My own life and leadership have been profoundly impacted by having Tod Bolsinger as a trusted guide in navigating the complexity of leading adaptive change.”
“Every maturing leader fears irrelevance. In response, most work harder at the practices that made them successful in the first place. Tod Bolsinger thinks that's a bad idea, and he's right. Through four small books, Bolsinger offers us pure gold: practical ways for leaders to keep their skills on pace with inevitable and rapid change. Invest in Transformation, one of the four books, is a worthy read. It encourages leaders to embrace adaptive leadership practices, offers insights on navigating the challenges of organizational change, and recommends investing trust to drive successful transformation.”
“Leadership is a lot like twirling a baton: it looks easy until you try it! If you are involved in leadership at any level I would highly recommend Tod Bolsinger's Practicing Change Series. It invites those of us in leadership to reflect on and rethink what it means to be a leader and to build 'in what really makes a difference—transformation.'”
