{ "item_title" : "The Right Altitude Field Guide to Change", "item_author" : [" Don Eash "], "item_description" : "You can be good at your job and still lose your seat in a reorg.Reorgs don't audit performance. They audit position. When the structure gets redrawn, the people holding the pen work from what they can see: who's connected to what, whose value has already been translated into language the new room carries. Your results are real. To a decision-maker who inherited no context, they can also be invisible.Most leaders treat change like weather. Something that blows through and passes. So they keep their heads down, tell the team let's not speculate, and wait for the dust to settle. But the dust doesn't settle. The map gets redrawn during the uncertainty, not after it, and the leaders who waited find out they weren't on it.This field guide is for the leader whose company is being redrawn around them. It treats the 2 games you're playing at once (the change done to you and the change you're leading others through) as 1 practice, because in the room, they are. It's built around 6 practices: The Signal Read. The org chart is the last thing to change, not the first. Keep a 3-column Signal Ledger, 15 minutes on Fridays, and learn to read money, rooms, sponsors, and outsiders before the announcement. The First 30 Days. The map is redrawn while everyone else stares at the old one. Write the 1-page reintroduction a new decision-maker needs, then work a 5-name Reposition Plan. The Sponsor Reset. You didn't lose the work. You lost the person who could see it. The Continuity Brief carries your value to people who never heard the story. Leading the Scared Team. Your team isn't listening to the announcement. They're watching your face. A 20-minute weekly cadence with 4 items replaces reassurance you can't guarantee. The In-Between. The waiting room drains leaders who don't budget for it. The Uncertainty Budget sorts every open question into decide anyway, park with a trigger, or release. The Read on the Exit. Sometimes the reorg answers the stay-or-go question for you. The Structural Test (3 questions, 90 days of evidence) tells a bruise from a verdict.Start with the Change Position Diagnostic, 5 statements on Signal, Position, Composure, Team, and Range, and go to the practice your lowest score points to. Or use the guide by situation: heard the rumor, announcement just landed, new boss, scared team, months of fog, or thinking about leaving. Every practice includes coaching questions, a 48-hour experiment you can run this week, and a 30-day build.This is for the leader who's tired of hoping the structure remembers them. Structures will keep changing. Be the leader it changes around, not the one it changes.Part of The Right Altitude Field Guides, a series of short, practical guides by executive coach Don Eash, MCC, ACTC.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/895/181/9798951812094_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "12.99", "online_price" : "12.99", "our_price" : "12.99", "club_price" : "12.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
