Book Review: Moments of Impact by Chris Ertel and Lisa Kay Solomon

http://www.momentsofimpactbook.com/

Moments of Impact provides a comprehensive guide on designing strategic conversations starting with a well organized meeting. Chris and Lisa stress on various aspects of organizing such a gathering starting from defining the purpose to engaging multiple perspectives to framing the issues. Chris and Lisa urge the reader to lay particular attention to setting the scene with a healthy level of OCD. To conduct a very successful meeting that can really change the direction of a company, its important to take time to organize the meeting space effectively. People attending need to be easily heard and ideas need to flow easily. Its even important to pay particular attention to when and what type of food is served during those strategic conversations. Chris and Lisa also describe how and why to confront the yabbuts (naysayers). It is extremely important to make the conversation an entire experience that will change the direction and be remembered for ever. Finally, Chris and Lisa provider a complete starter kit for these strategic conversations. I would strongly recommend this book for those of you who are trying to make your organizations change.
