Summary: Just work hard!
Review: This book is a travesty lacking original content and thought. The fact that it is actually a bestseller makes me worry about the collective intelligence of Corporate America. Save your money and buy something else!

First, and foremost, DON'T ANALYZE- JUST READ IT, AND THEN READ IT AGAIN!Give it to everyone you come in contact with! Think about welcoming change or at least consider another way of looking at it!!!

Summary: The Handwriting Certainly IS on the Wall
Review: The real message of this book:· You are a Little Person, don't expect security in life · The only one who cares about you is you · Your survival depends on following us wherever we lead you (but we don't care about you) · Do not question the premise of this system, that is only whining · All change is good (well, not for you necessarily) · Thoughtful obedience is preferred, but mindless obedience is acceptable

Summary: Message is fine, book is silly.
Review: This lesson this book attempts to teach is that we shouldn't be afraid of change and of taking chances. That's fine, but the book is so simplistic and repetitive and silly. And it hits you over the head with its story. This may be a good book for 3rd graders, but at this point in my life I don't need to learn life's lessons from little mice with silly names.

Summary: A good metaphor for handling change
Review: This book was recommended to me by a former manager after a recent merger we had. I found it an easy read, and quite profound. A simple metaphor I had already known about for some time was the Icarus effect of a man flying upwards towards the sun, but because the man's wings were made of was, they melted, and the man fell to earth. Basically, I think that we can become trapped in routines, which fail to be effective anymore in the light of changing circumstances. I feel that we should always be questioning our routine, to see if it still effective. If it is not, then we must be able to identify that and move on. What is very important about this book, is that it is very user friendly, and animates very well the idea of being able to react to change. Metaphors are often powerful, and useful, and I feel it has animated the idea of questioning things- if they are for their own sake or not in the light of changing cirumstances.

Summary: wonderful book
Review: This is a wonderful book for any one facing change in the work place. Our CEO past this book out to all management to share and learn from. It has made a big change in my outlook. I know that I don't want to be "Hem".

Summary: On Moving and Cutting the Cheese . . .
Review: Reading this book can lead to the discovery of change. One's perception of change and progress can be renamed through this book alone. The hidden allegory unfolds from one chapter to the next, while at times the readers are left to wonder who's who in their own place of employment. I recommend this book for its thoughts on change and "restructuring." Should your boss recommend this book, should you yearn to rethink the world of work, should someone sneak it into your portfolio, take heed and divert your eyes to its pages for a critical reflection on your personal and professional journey.

Summary: Infantile drivel for the weak-minded
Review: This book is so lame, tedious and insulting that if your employer forces you to read it - I would strongly suggest you go in search of better cheese. I don't know what sort of person is so naive as to need the 'advice' and 'lessons' that this book supposedly teaches, but I weep for us all if there are people who can genuinely learn something from this garbage. The writing style, storyline and basic analogy are fit only for ten year olds. It might be a good read for a rotten child who is having trouble coming to terms with the basic unfairness of life, but no semi-intelligent adult should be subjected to it. The fact that this book has enjoyed so much success is a sad sign of the dismal condition of our society.

Summary: Trite and Silly
Review: This short, overpriced book states the obvious ("Change happens, go with it") in a silly story. I loved "The One Minute Manager" but this book is not in the same league.
