Rethinking Workplace Change: A Conversation with Ashley Goodall (Part One)

John's guest this week is Ashley Goodall, author of the provocative new book "The Problem with Change."

Drawing on decades of experience managing human resources initiatives at organizations like Cisco and Deloitte, he argues that non-stop change often does more harm than good.
