In this much-anticipated new edition of The Six Secrets of Change, acclaimed bestselling author Michael Fullan offers 50 percent new content to lay out key factors that allow an organization to adjust quickly and intelligently to shifts in consumer tastes, political climate, and economic opportunity and sustain meaningful change. His lessons are simple, but profound, showing why collegiality must be deliberately cultivated, long-range plans must allow for the possibility of unknown opportunities, employees must be developed and nurtured, learning opportunities must be offered frequently, leadership potential must be developed at all levels, and positive pressure must be inescapable.

Fullan also provides actionable guidelines and ideas that support those at the local, regional, and policymaker levels to become influential in helping to transform organizations and systems. Students, for example, will learn how to work with adults in developing vital learning and well-being habits that help them become better citizens in and for society.
