Inhaltsangabe

"A refreshing take that differentiates this resource from other books. Supported by clear, thoughtful prose and insightful advice." - Kirkus Reviews Change is inevitable. Mastering it is a skill-one you can train, strengthen, and rely on when life shifts faster than expected. Career transitions. Personal setbacks. Moments of uncertainty. Each demands the same ability: adapt, stay grounded, and move forward even when the path isn't clear. The Problem: Most people are never taught how to understand, navigate, achieve, and sustain lasting change. The Solution: Train to Change offers a practical system for managing change in both your personal and professional life. Durand draws on insights from leadership, psychology, philosophy, and organizational transformation, backed by 40 years of successful hands-on frontline experience. His method trains you to become a change practitioner-someone capable of navigating and implementing change anywhere. Not abstract theory. Not wishful thinking. The Train to Change program blends Army memoir and guide, turning real-world experience into a repeatable system for lifelong growth. Inside, you will find practical, effective self-help modules designed to train you to:Operate with calm and clarity under pressure Build self-awareness and uncover blind spots Recognize and suspend biases that distort judgment Strengthen discipline, focus, and emotional control Develop resilience in constant change Clarify your values, purpose, and intent Evaluate ideas before committing time, energy, or resources Before you can lead change anywhere, you must first master yourself. Get trained. Practice the skill. Change. Your choice: If not now, then when?

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

From Army Private to Chief Information Officer (CIO), J. Reed Durand is a seasoned change practitioner with four decades of experience leading personal, team, and organizational transformation within one of the world's largest and most complex institutions. Across two complementary careers - military and civilian - he has developed, refined, and applied practical, field-tested approaches to navigating change that translate across cultures, professions, and life stages. Durand combines formal study in leadership, organizational behavior, motivational psychology, philosophy, process improvement, and change management with extensive frontline experience. His work bridges theory and practice, offering readers grounded strategies they can immediately apply to their own growth, leadership challenges, and professional development. During his two careers with the U.S. Army, he rose through nine promotions, from the lowest entry-level enlisted rank to the highest senior civilian leadership roles, serving in 25 assignments across three continents and multiple U.S. states. His work supported large-scale organizational initiatives affecting hundreds of thousands of Soldiers and civilian employees. These experiences shaped his core belief: lasting transformation begins with self-mastery. From that foundation, people and organizations can adapt, grow, and thrive in an increasingly complex world. In the Train to Change program, Phase One: Self-Mastery is the first book in his transformation series, designed to help readers take ownership of their personal and professional evolution through practical insight, discipline, and proven leadership principles.
