Summary notes: "Change. It's a constant, in life and in business. Its pace is increasing across the globe--and businesses and entities of all stripes must do more than keep up. They must innovate and accelerate to succeed. And yet people--many of the people that businesses rely on--are unnerved by change, often in ways they can't explain. This difficulty in embracing the new hinders breakthrough change initiatives, slowing nearly 90 percent of them to a glacial pace or stopping them entirely. It's a problem--perhaps the hardest problem--that innovative leaders face as they drive toward the future. Now, in Stacking the Deck: An Operator's Manual for Leading Breakthrough Change, readers will find expert guidance and advice on how toeffectively and successfully lead and implement breakthrough change in their organizations--from wherever they stand.Through in-the-trenches stories of experienced leaders of bold, sweeping change in organizations from Intel to Pinkberry, from Asurion to Starbucks, Dave Pottruck, former CEO of Charles Schwab and winner of the Morningstar CEO of the Year award, walks readers through the social and emotional reality of leading others and all the ups and downs that can entail. Stacking the Deck addresses the challenges leaders are likely to confront in driving and implementing change--and provides a 9-step plan to help leaders successfully organize and drive breakthrough change. Dave presents his nine step process for stacking the deck in favor of success developed over his more than thirty years of experience in leading many of the boldest changes in the financial services industry.Leading breakthrough change is certainly not for the faint of heart. But armed with the right insights, a time proven process, and perspective gained from leaders who have "been there and done that" success can be encouraged although never guaranteed. This book and its contents will help you stack the deck in favor of your ultimate success" Provided by publisher.;
