I enjoyed reading this book。 It was a quick read with topics and areas of focus separated into the five days of the work week: Monday， Tuesday， Wednesday， Thursday， and Friday。 The format resonated with me and helped me dive deep in my understanding on each topic area。Some of the nuggets that I made special note of:- How to avoid converging on solutions too early when identifying problems- "People are the only investment with the possibility of infinite returns"- The concept of trust wobbles （em I enjoyed reading this book。 It was a quick read with topics and areas of focus separated into the five days of the work week: Monday， Tuesday， Wednesday， Thursday， and Friday。 The format resonated with me and helped me dive deep in my understanding on each topic area。Some of the nuggets that I made special note of:- How to avoid converging on solutions too early when identifying problems- "People are the only investment with the possibility of infinite returns"- The concept of trust wobbles （empathy， authenticity， and logic）- Stories as the most powerful weapon at a leader's disposal- "The leaders who don't get speed right tend to use other people's time casually。"- Trying to be great at everything leads to "exhausted medicrity" 。。。more

This is a little tough to review without testing these ideas， but the authors' approach does seem to have merit， and I enjoy their strategies and ideas。 Worth a read。I really appreciate the free copy for review！！ This is a little tough to review without testing these ideas， but the authors' approach does seem to have merit， and I enjoy their strategies and ideas。 Worth a read。I really appreciate the free copy for review！！ 。。。more

Perhaps the most impressive thing about "Move Fast and Fix Things: The Trusted Leader's Guide to Solving Hard Problems " is its title， which riffs on the tech industry anthem of "Move Fast and Break Things"。 Certainly， the author's focus on actually fixing things and intentionally initiating organizational changes is a very nice contrast to the common assumption that disruption will automatically result in system wide improvements。 It's this focus that provides the real value of the book in that Perhaps the most impressive thing about "Move Fast and Fix Things: The Trusted Leader's Guide to Solving Hard Problems " is its title， which riffs on the tech industry anthem of "Move Fast and Break Things"。 Certainly， the author's focus on actually fixing things and intentionally initiating organizational changes is a very nice contrast to the common assumption that disruption will automatically result in system wide improvements。 It's this focus that provides the real value of the book in that it moves to shift the paradigm and encourage decisionmakers to make decisions that are transformative not destructive。The road map and checkpoints that this book details are well thought out and will definitely provide useful guidance to those engaged in organizational change。 However， the primary focus of this book is on high level executives who initiate and envision change and not the people who actually implement it。 As such， it fails to cover the process required for transformative change at a deep enough level and completely ignores many factors that govern the rate of change an organization can safely endure。 As such， implementation of this book's ideas as recommended in the book itself is likely to meet roadblocks in many organizations。 Additionally， the one week window that the book suggests to pilot change within an organization is not realistic for many organizations。Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher Harvard Business Review Press， for providing me with an eARC in exchange for my honest review。 。。。more

This is the third book the authors have teamed up to write。 I know this because they reference the first two in this book。 I am sure they had a great time writing it but probably should have focused on a stand alone book with substance。 Very wave top and lacks the detail needed for substantial change in an organization。
