The Heart of Change - John Kotter

Introduction

"The Heart of Change" is a seminal book co-authored by John Kotter and Dan Cohen. It focused on organisational change management and was published in 2002. This book builds on Kotter’s earlier work, "Leading Change," offering a more detailed, example-rich examination of the transformation process. Kotter, a professor at Harvard Business School and a renowned change expert, and Cohen, a principal with Deloitte Consulting, provide insightful methods and emotional thrusts that drive successful change.

Main Themes

The core argument of "The Heart of Change" is simple yet profound: successful change is more about influencing hearts than minds. It posits that to truly drive organisational change, leaders must work on altering how people feel, not just how they think.
