"Laurie Lewis provides a compelling and fresh look at the concept and practice of change. Her communication perspective and selection of case studies help to make this book a valuable resource to leaders in both the public and private sectors."

Michael Bzdak, Ph.D., Johnson & Johnson

"The complexity of organizational life is brought to life in this book as stakeholders with different backgrounds, interests and resources struggle to find solutions to the problems of the day. It's a must read for 21st century organizational knowledge for students of communication and organizations alike."

Gail T. Fairhurst, University of Cincinnati

"Lewis draws on the literature and her extensive original research to provide a comprehensive and innovative treatment of communication in planned change implementation. A must for students, researchers, and practitioners."

Ted Zorn, University of Waikato

"As the pace of change accelerates in our society, increasingly driven by forces external to our organizations and institutions, Lewis's contribution couldn't be more timely, or critical as we seek to better chart our future."

Matthew Hamill, Senior Vice President, National Association of College and University Business Officers

"We know change is an increasingly critical process affecting literally everything. Lewis provides an excellent examination of change from a strategic communication perspective with an important and innovative focus on stakeholders. Her message is theoretically sound, accessible, compelling, and ultimately practical."

Pamela Shockley Zalabak, University of Colorado, Colorado Spring

"For students of organization, this is a must-read. Through illuminating case studies and a remarkably clear discussion of theories, Lewis shows how our conception of organization is key to how we approach and implement change; she builds on this to show how a more complex vision of communication can enrich our conceptions of both organization and stakeholder theorizing. This book is an important contribution to the way we think about organizational communication. "

Tim Kuhn, University of Colorado, Boulder
