Who Moved My Cheese?

Spencer Johnson MD

A photograph of the book Who Moved My Cheese This is a gem of a book about change. It can be read in less that one hour, yet it has the power to change your life.

Some people “feel entitled to their cheese. They feel like victims when it is taken away and blame others” (your cheese being whatever you want it to be). In the fast changing business (and social) environment, they keep moving it.

How do we deal with change?

Through the 4 characters (2 humans and 2 mice), this book provides a delightful insight into the way different people anticipate (or not) and react (or not) to change. Read the book and identify the traits in yourselves and in others in your organisation; that may be inhibiting you from moving forward.
