This book on change management is aimed at top and middle management, change managers, and change leaders – but also anyone who is managing a change project as part of a software implementation or introduction of a digital product. In this book, experts from industry and academia draw attention to pitfalls and best practices in change management from a business perspective, but also place an important focus on the human component. The book does not prioritize theoretical frameworks, but compels the reader towards a reality-check and gain a practical understanding of the topic. The authors also explore why – despite the broad knowledge available – there still is a gap when it comes to what is applied in real life.
