Second Edition

Make Waves: Be the One to Start
Change at Work and in Life

Make Waves guides readers through increasing their capability and confidence to start and lead change. Patti utilizes the Think.Know.Do model that reinforces the importance of building the agility muscle to truly change behavior and find new ways of working.

Make Waves shares how your thoughts set you up for starting any change. The belief that “I can figure this out” and understanding how planning and progress look different in high change. Any change is new, so you can’t already know everything you need to know. Make Waves guides you in determining your knowledge gaps and how to intake new information and insights. We often go straight to the “do” or actions. A change requires new strategies and actions that work when you are on an escalator that never stands still. Agile planning, incrementalism, and experimentation are all essential tools for your toolkit.
