Thresholds of Change: The Way through Transformational Times

Forever change the way you change… Who hasn’t struggled with change? Whether in our personal lives, at work, or in relation to global change, we’ve all known its related dread, confusion, and loss. In today’s rapidly changing environment, we all can get better at facing change. Instead of approaching change from whether we like it or want it, Thresholds of Change suggests looking for what change wants from us . Like the seasons, change is a distinct process with its own phases and sequence. Thresholds of Change offers a clear picture of how change works —the mechanics that operate no matter where change happens or how we react to it. This underlying process can be learned and with it, our innate ability to change increases. Change is the agent of our growth, without which we’re doomed to a half-life. When we align with the change process, supporting what it brings about within us—even in the most unwanted and feared changes—change is easier. This way with change makes it a more enlivening experience with vastly more beneficial outcomes. Thresholds of Change applies to all change—that’s its disruptive value. In seeing this universal process of change, you’re able to work with it much more effectively. And you’re able to use the changes in your life as they’re intended: the way to reach your full human potential. Reynolds discovered a new way to approach change through her three-decade career working with change – in organizations, multi-entity endeavors, teams, and individuals. No matter where it’s taking place, who is involved or where, or what the reaction to it is, change can be far easier to undergo and vastly more productive. Thresholds of Change shows us the way. Founder of her consulting firm, RRC, Reynolds has pioneered new methods and models for change in diverse and far-reaching projects (Federal lands management, information resources, services for the unhoused, Olympic training facilities, the arts, education, and more). Major change projects involve individuals whose personal changes (health issues, divorces, retirement) contribute to the overall change dynamic. Reynolds’ methods apply with equal success to both personal and organizational change, opening wholly new pathways of thinking, capability, and creativity. The Thresholds of Change model comprises four distinct phases, each with a unique purpose in the overall change process. With the model, people can easily navigate change, align with it as it unfolds, and ultimately reap greater results in learning and growth from the changes they undergo. The book applies the model to a wide range of change scenarios: personal life changes, leading change in groups, and in relation to change in the world. Exploring such topics as how to resolve challenging emotions, cope with loss and grief, cultivate resourceful skills and mindsets, and amplify the benefits to be gained from change, Thresholds of Change gives readers the way to advance their ability to work with and flourish in change, no matter where it arises. — ASIN: B0DF3N5RRW | ISBN13: 9798990298309 | ISBN-13: 979-8990298309
