“…the last 6 chapters were full of techniques and thoughts I can use all the time. I'll re-read those sections a few more times before I put this book away.”

“Your book is packed with practical information; is easily digestible; has depth and is well researched. It takes it through the entire A to Z. "How to" spectrum of life. I can now understand why you are so passionate in sharing something that is so close but yet can seem so far in these modern times!! Your book has brought it a lot closer, at least for me."
Maurice Rousseau, Edmonton
 
“…it was a good eye opener on the fact that things have always and will continue to change. It gave me many ideas of how to deal with and except change myself and to be able to communicate the need to deal with change to others. I wanted to think sometimes that I was too busy to have reading assignments but that was not the case. I just have not been used to doing much reading lately and it did me good to read material that could expand my supervisory/people skills. Your method of pulling the group together for thoughts and discussion about the reading was enjoyable and I liked hearing what others thought about the information."
Bruce Greenough
 
“I enjoyed reading this book. It presented things to me in more of a real life type situation rather than a clinical way. I found this to be a lot easier to read and more of the information stuck with me. I also liked the book reviews that we did as a group, This made me make the time to read the book rather than keep putting it off.”
Jeff Nice
 
“I liked how Jim presented change as ‘the way it is.’  Change is always going to be a part of our lives/careers and how he presented some interesting ways of dealing with it and leading those people who can't deal with it, i.e. those on the Bitter Bus or live in Pity City.  It was an interesting read and definitely will add value to my leadership skills.  Aren't quantum mechanics cool? :)  Looking forward to our next read.”
Jason Simpson
 
“This was an excellent book…brought in examples from real life and real people which I think helps to make it more meaningful.”
Chad Hurliman
 
“An easy to read book. As I read portions of it, my mind would visualize how we produce the positive outcomes and kept me very interested. I got a lot of food for thought.”
Jim Dalton
 
“Full of very useful points. The book's suggested outlook on life has many benefits I was previously un aware of.  My wife is about 3/4 through the book deciding to read it after I had mentioned several times.  So far she likes the book commenting how many of the behaviors of people are timeless. It's a good book that offers some great life lessons.  Review process was very good, you did a great job of reviewing the important aspects of the book and covering things efficiently.”
Chris Castleman
 
“An easy book to read with great ideas and explanations on how we must respond to change if we are going to keep our sanity. I like your suggestion of offering this to all plant employees. Your going through the chapters brought out much discussion in the sessions I attended and I thank you for offering this to us.”
Steve Schlegel
 
“I enjoyed reading through this book.  I thought that Jim’s illustrations of how a person’s decision to use change as a tool to grow, as a positive, can be such a powerful tool.  I thought it was a good refresher for all of us, especially with the changes we have seen in the last few years with markets and run-time.  I also like how you broke up the book into sections, so it didn’t require us to sit down a read (and digest) the whole book at once.”
