"It's often a misconception that change is negative and you need authority to be a change agent. In this book, all those rules are thrown out the window; anyone can create a positive change to advance their community, company, and world! I can really relate to the real-life examples!"

“Today’s most agile, innovative organizations recognize the need to embrace change and transformation.  With April’s insights and expertise to guide you on this journey, you’ll be equipped with the tools, tips, tricks, and techniques to empower yourself and your organization on the journey.  Where so-called change experts provide platitudes and pontification about transformation in theory, April puts the concepts into practice with real-world experience gained over years of advocacy and hard work to deliver business results.  This book will change how you view your role as a change agent in your organization in ways that will make you a more effective leader.”

“The world needs your best ideas. But becoming a change agent isn’t always easy. April Mills’ invaluable new book shows you exactly how to navigate obstacles and overcome the status quo to make a difference.”

"Everyone Is a Change Agent is a refreshing look at how anyone can influence change at work, at home, and in their community. April Mills' key distinction between driving people and driving change is a crucial concept that every change agent must understand and master."

“The world continues to move faster and faster.   Many organizations invest a lot of time in defining strategy, but very little in the actual strategy execution.  Most leaders in organizations have never been properly equipped to truly lead change.  In Change Tactics, April Mills gives readers real tools to help leaders understand how to drive change.” 

"This book is an excellent reminder to all of us that the target of change should be what and how we do things, not individuals or groups, and that change starts with oneself."

“In the Pixar movie Ratatouille, chef Gusteau makes the radical claim that “Anyone can cook,” but like a good chef, he keeps his recipes secret. In her first book, April Mills made the radical claim “Anyone can be a change agent.” With this book, she shares her recipes.”

“Status quo is the thing that stops us and our organizations from reaching their full potential. To battle it, you need help. This is where April's book comes in. With her extensive experience as a successful change agent, April created an impressive collection of powerful tactics to battle status quo. This is what you need when you hope to transform!”

“Anyone leading change or wanting to make change happen should read this book. April provides practical tips to not only make change more impactful, but to speed up the process and keep you motivated along the way. Organizational change is a process and this book is your guide.”

“Right at the start April reminds us that finding good business books isn’t the problem, it’s that we don’t take action.  Hamlet said that overthinking a problem, the biggest bane of change management in my experience, is what causes “enterprise of great pitch and moment…to lose the name of action.”  The book is clearly born of the reality of having to move an organization through change, while not having a lot of time to theorize on it.  So, design rather than plan, remember it’s not about you, and take action…pick up the book!”

“April has an incredible talent for conveying approaches to change that are practical, actionable, and apply no matter how big the change is or what change you're trying to make. Wherever you are in your change journey, this book provides just-in-time tactics to create a sustainable, people-centered transition to achieve even the seemingly impossible.”

“I secretly hope that April adds two more tactics to the 50 that are currently in this book, then makes a deck of cards. I’d carry the deck with me so that whenever I got stuck, I could shuffle it, deal the cards out one by one, until I’m unstuck. Brilliantly helpful.”

“Keep Change Tactics on your most easily accessible bookshelf. Whatever challenge you face—change stalled, people ignoring you, trapped in “red tape,” budget stuck—there’s a change tactic for that. I said, “Doh! Oh no, I do this!” You will too. Better change tactics; start now!”
