"Change or Die"
Alan Deutschman
Executive Director, Unboundary
Alan Deutschman is one of America's leading writers on change and innovation. His groundbreaking book, "Change or Die: The Three Keys to Change at Work and in Life," debunks our myths about this crucial topic and reveals the surprising truths about what actually inspires and motivates real change. Drawing on a startling range of compelling case studies from, heart patients and heroin-addicted criminals who transform their lives, to major corporations that revamp their cultures and pull off astonishing turnarounds, Deutschman is an enlightening and energetic speaker who conveys great insight and passion about our untapped potential for profound change.
