Book: Change Has Changed

Author: Sam Chand

Genre: BUSINESS & ECONOMICS /Leadership

Release date: October 19, 2021

The Greek philosopher Heraclitus said change is the only constant in life.

But the world has experienced so much upheaval since January 2020 that change itself has changed! In business, the church, and nonprofits, leaders are being left in the dust as events and challenges speed by in a blur. The pace of change was accelerating before…but the pandemic pressed the pedal to the floor.

“We’re at an inflection point,” says leadership architect and change strategist Sam Chand. “The way things were isn’t the way things will be.”

In his new book Change Has Changed, Sam sets out to help leaders understand the evolving nature of change so that they can guide their organizations with wisdom and confidence.

He examines three major shifts that he likens to three simultaneous earthquakes:

Our environment has changed.People are working from home, many businesses may never reopen, and the way we shop, handle health needs, and even go to church has changed.
We have changed.We’ve learned to live with rampant uncertainty and a raft full of nagging fears—but our bodies and our souls weren’t meant for this!
The people around us have changed.They are frustrated, isolated, depressed, anxious, and angry. They just don’t feel safe.

Sam tackles these and related issues head-on by offering lessons that will empower leaders to be ready for the next normal.

“We used to talk about a new normalas if it’s the end point of change,” Sam explains, “but if we’ve learned anything in the past months, it’s that change is perpetual, and we need to anticipate the next one on the horizon.”

"Change Has Changed" by Sam Chandis the first book I have read that is in direct response to the changes we have experienced because of COVID-19. “ I certainly agreed with his statement "Too much has changed for us to go back to the way things used to be,”

This book was an interesting book to read but at the same time I don't feel like it written for readers like me, just because I am not in business nor am I a preacher but at the same time I did agreed with the author's statement that we need to let others know we have the same feelings and issues that are bothering leaders when it comes to family and other issues.

I think after reading this book, readers will have a better understanding of what leaders had and have to deal with Covid-19. The author also said that he thinks more changes will be coming before the overall effect of the virus is over.

This book was easy to read and not textbook style at all. Some of questions at the end of each chapter I felt like could be answered by mothers and fathers or heads of families that would make this new normal easier to deal with.

I received a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit and these opinions are my own.
