I would recommend this book as I believe it develops a solid foundation for the connection between change management and culture shaping. I was looking for something a little more instructional and less theoretical as I already understood, and agreed with the concept. I particularly liked the Cultural Profile and the importance of taking ownership of ones thoughts in order to manage ones moods. Not new stuff today, but still important.
I believe this was a book used for leadership development in one of my previous roles. It has good info and I have recommended to jr / new managers and high individual contributors over the years.
