Cracking the Code for Communications That Work
“I never knew a book about communications could be a page-turner!” – Jill Vitiello, CEO, Vitiello Advisory
“This book offers ways to digest and shrink the enormity of change leadership, with an excellent framework and practical steps for each.” – Kaveh Naficy, Founding Partner, LAKIDA LLC
Why do 70% of organizational change initiatives fail? After more than three decades leading award-winning change communications at global Fortune 500 companies including Bayer, Pfizer, and Prudential, Mary Lou Panzano has cracked the code. In Cementing Change, she reveals the secret formula that helped her teams deliver transformational results time and time again.
At the heart of the book is Panzano’s proprietary 4Cs Change Framework™—Clarity, Connection, Caring, and Courage—activated by 12 Principles of Prosperity that bring the framework to life. Through compelling case studies, candid personal stories, and exclusive insights from Leadership Luminaries including CEOs, military historians, and renowned coaches, Panzano shows readers how to spot the signs of failing change initiatives and engineer successful ones instead.
Whether you’re a leader steering your organization through transformation, a communications professional supporting major change, or someone seeking meaningful change in your own life, this practical guide delivers tools you can apply immediately. With 100% of proceeds donated to charitable causes supporting food security, housing, and health, Cementing Change is more than a business book—it’s a movement to build a better world, one successful change at a time.
