This thought-provoking book explores of the concept of resistance ― something that is bound to arise within every organization in response to new projects, policies or initiatives. Rather than seeing resistance as an inconvenience that needs to be eliminated, this book invites readers to take a new approach to different types of resistance, both hidden and obvious, and instead view resistance as a guiding light to discover objective differences, dissatisfaction, criticism of procedures or different assessments or values. Beyond No earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of all business leaders, executives and managers seeking to achieve excellence in leadership through a thoughtful approach to resistance instead of relying on ineffective command-and-control tactics.
