		The picture on the cover of John P. Kotter's book tells it all: a group of penguins are shuffling their feet nervously on an icy precipice, while one brave bird leaps for the water below.
		Kotter is a famous writer, speaker and practitioner, the book was published by Harvard Business School and is praised very highly by many business leaders.
		The problem is that Kotter, like almost everybody else, subscribes to the classic change management perspective where business change is seen as a gigantic, complex, difficult and lengthy one-off effort to move a company from where it is to some future state desired by its management board.

		Five years ago, John Kotter created quite a flutter in academic circles when he took early retirement from Harvard Business School at the age of 54.
		Says Kotter, “It’s easy for everybody to say ‘yes, we have problems’, but then, they point their fingers elsewhere.
		According to Kotter, the biggest obstacles to change are not middle managers but, more often, those who work just a level or two below the CEO — vice presidents, directors, general managers, and others who haven’t yet made it to “the top” and may have the most to lose in a change.

	Leadership Article - Leadership by John Kotter
		John Kotter: One, leaders must understand that leadership is not just a job of the person above them in hierarchy.
		Two, they need to understand what leadership means in their position.
		Drawing that out of people--or maybe a better way to say it is, helping them to draw it out of themselves--and using that to help organizations leap and maneuver, I think is going to be the critical leadership challenge.

		Kotter presents his framework for an effective corporate change initiative through the tale of a colony of Antarctic penguins facing danger-inspired, perhaps, by today's real-life global warming crisis (or, perhaps, by March of the Penguins' box office).
		The logic of Kotter's fictional framework is wobbly at times-his characters live and act very much like real penguins except that one carries a briefcase and another ("the Professor") cites articles from scholarly journals-and the whimsical tone will not be to everyone's taste.
		John Kotter replicated that method of instruction with this fun little book, OUR ICEBERG IS MELTING.
