Review :
"Driving Successful Transformations manages quite eloquently to break down the complexity of change management within an organizational environment to a doable set of iterative stages, that untangles and then reconfigures the organization and its resource base towards a new 'north star' vision. The SHIFT framework created by the author effectively combines top-down strategizing with bottom-up tactical actions, using practical implementation tips, detailed examples, and a powerful toolbox to guide the reader through every stage of the change process. Definitely a must read!" - Dr Ing Alex Rizzo B.ENG, MBA, DBA, FIET, FCIWEM
"Driving Successful Transformations is a clear and practical guide for leaders ready to navigate real change. Jonathan's SHIFT model breaks down the journey into actionable stages - but what sets this book apart is its focus on people. He reminds us that transformation is never just a process - it's a human journey rooted in mindset, culture, and trust. As he writes, "A successful transformation is about more than tools and frameworks; it's about mindset, culture, and people." He treats communication as the engine of change, showing how trust and clear dialogue align people behind a shared vision. Instead of fighting resistance, he urges leaders to turn it into resilience - a perspective every executive coach will appreciate. With its balance of strategy, practical tools, and real-world insights, this book is a timely reminder that sustainable transformation succeeds or fails with people at its heart. Jonathan Spiteri's book blends strategy and humanity. If you're leading change - or about to - it will help you ask the right questions, engage your people, and keep your transformation on track. A thoughtful guide for any leader's shelf." - Cathryn O'Donnelly, Careers Specialist & Organizational Coach
