Summary: If there is no struggle, there is no progress.
Review: For those that thought that the 60 minutes was a waste of time - I encourage you to "waste" the 60 minutes for yourself, make your own judgement and read an excellent book based on change. The mice and the little people in the book represent different personalities of people. Whether we want to accept it or not, we are all mice in a maze looking for the cheese.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun little guide
Review: Yes it's a short book, but it's fun to read. It has quite some wisdom in it, although you don't want to take it too serious. Most of us have problems with change and it usually starts when our schedule becomes messed up and lunch is delayed for an hour or whatever. This little guide gives some advice how we all can adapt to these little and maybe bigger changes in everyday life. It's well worth the read. Recently I also read a book that contains a valuable chapter on 'Trying to change the Unchangeable' and as a whole is a very helpful guide to a fulfilled life, which is Dietmar Scherf's "I LOVE ME: Avoiding and Overcoming Depression."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: "Who Cut the Cheese?" because this one stinks!
Review: Some sharp marketing kid fresh out of college gets 5 stars for figuring out how to sucker businesses into buying this piece of trash in bulk. My company held a contest to get us to read this pathetic excuse for a management/self-help book. Halfway through the book I fell asleep because Dr. Johnson managed to write in monotone and drag out what should have been a more effective story. The big print and big margins should have been a big clue that this book was a big waste of money.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Who Moved My Cheese?
Review: Good, easy to read book. A must for anyone feeling down on themselves. Introduces a new look on change and the inevitablility of change in today's competitive marketplace. I would recommend it to anyone interested in more finincial and emotional freedom.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easy, practical and light
Review: This Cheese smells great!! Very practical book. Show a common story in this days. How the most of the people react to the change, in any sense: work, family any kid of change. And how a few live after change... Good reference for people who is working in change process or change management. Very powerful metaphor. Easy to read. I recommend read this book, With a little time slice you can earn a lot.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Hour to Understand Change
Review: This was one of the best hours I have ever spent, reading Who Moved My Cheese? Too often today, we wait for others or the situation to change rather than seeking a path that will lead us to a better soltution or result. We waste time waiting, heehawing or becoming frustrated with life's situation. This book taught me to accept it and get on with it.

If you haven't read it, it only takes about an hour. And it is a great and simple way to understand change. But most important, it is a great way to accept it and find out "where is the NEXT cheese."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book
Review: Highly recommended for anyone who has chosen change in their life, or for anyone who will encounter change (which is inevitable). This book addresses our fear of change, be it career, marriage, divorce, other relationships or social changes. Encourages a positive perception of change, be it chosen or forced upon us. Great book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Throw Away This Trash.....Read "Management by Vice" Instead!
Review: "Who Moved My Cheese?" is a ridiculous book! It panders to over-inflated managerial egos, which revel in condescendingly viewing all other employees as the "littlepeople" or preferably sniffing and scurrying mice with "simple rodent brains". And who are the managers in this parable? It is obvious from the "Discussion" section that they are supposed to be visionaries, who graciously hand down this simple-minded advice with all of the derogatory comparisons. This only confirms that it is management's counter-productive mental attitudes and behavior patterns that are truly in dire need of serious change!

If you want to read a quality book, which respects the intelligence of employees and gives a voice to their perspective on management, the hilarious American satire, "Management by Vice" by C.B. Don is highly recommended. Just leave this atrociously produced, "best-selling" trash for the feeble-minded managers, who make such "great" managerial decisions as to actually endorse it and squander the company profits for the sake of a management ego-trip!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A little reminder can't hurt...
Review: I agree with those who have given this book a poor review, in that, there really is nothing in it that you don't already know. However, I disagree that it is a waste of time to read. It is very easy in today's busy world to forget what you already know -- and that is that change happens. Yes, change happens every day and we are constantly dealing with it. However, sometimes it is easy to get stuck in a rut and resist change. If being conscious of a problem is half the battle, then how can this book be all bad? It definitely raises your awareness of how change affects all of us and provides simple ways to deal with it. I won't say it's the best book I've ever read, but it's definitely worth the 30 minutes it will take you to read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Navigate Thru Your Life "Maze"
Review: "WHO MOVED MY CHEESE" is a fast paced parable for changes in life, which I enjoyed very much. It contains insights for dealing with changes in all aspects of life. If you read this parable with an open mind it will help you navigate thru the maze of your life to find "the cheese" ie satisfaction.

Another book I strongly suggest reading is "WORKING ON YOURSELF DOESN'T WORK" by Ariel and Shya Kane. This book has given me the set of instructional keys to unlock my own particular life mazes. It can do the same for you.
