## Description

Bestselling authors and cohosts of the TED podcast Fixable , Frances Frei and Anne Morriss reinvent the playbook for how to lead change—with a radical approach that moves fast, builds trust, and accelerates excellence. Speed has gotten a bad name in business, much of it deserved. When Facebook made "Move fast and break things" an informal company motto, it fueled a widely held belief that we can either make progress or take care of people, one or the other. A certain amount of wreckage is the price we have to pay for inventing the future. Leadership experts Frances Frei and Anne Morriss argue that this belief is deeply flawed—and that it keeps you from building a great company. Helping executives and entrepreneurs solve their toughest problems over the past decade, Frei and Morriss learned that the trade-off between speed and excellence is false . The best change leaders solve hard problems with fierce urgency while making their organizations—employees, customers, and shareholders—even stronger. They move fast and fix things . Based on their work with fast-moving companies such as Uber, Riot Games, and ServiceNow, Frei and Morriss reveal the five essential steps to moving fast and fixing things. You'll learn to: Identify the real problem holding you back Build and rebuild trust in your company Create a culture where everyone can thrive Communicate powerfully as a leader Go fast by empowering your team With a one-week plan to fix your problems on a fast cycle time of one step per "day," this book is your guide to maximizing impact and reinventing your approach to change. By the end of the week, you won't just have a road map for solving your company's toughest problems—you'll already be well on your way, improving your company at exhilarating speed.

Review: A must read if you want to hedge your bets and strategize to succeed with operational improvement. - If you find yourself saying that “something around here needs to be fixed” but also find yourself stuck by no improvement, Move Fast & Fix Things is the path-forward-planning playbook of practical ways to approach, frame, intentionally experiment (with a willingness to fail, learn, and try again), and work to solve those hard problems. If you are serious about the details, don’t be deceived by its 178 pages of primary content and assume this will be a “quick” read. Once you learn “how” many change efforts fail (to be honest, I think the book really buried this lede), Move Fast’s blueprint schedule of logically ordered and helpful how-tos may inspire you to draft and tailor your collaborative problem-solving roadmap in a way that you confidently hedge your bets. Move Fast shows you how to plan, act, assess, and improve. Refreshingly, it does not waste your time with empty aspirational platitudes. But you will be hit between with eyes with sharp reminders about your fundamental and moral obligations owed to your colleagues, team, and organization. Leadership reminders that stood out for me included: pitchfork justice helps nobody; inclusion does not mean exclusion of others; avoid sham-hiring theater; and (channeling in a way that honors Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.) there is such a thing as being too late. Like we learned in their earlier book Unleashed, the true work begins with and centers on trust. Move Fast’s premise is that you really must earn your right to do this kind of tactical work around speed. You need an aligned, leaning-in organization that's firing on all three pillars of trust to then move quickly. Thankfully, the authenticity, empathy, and logic trust pillars are explained early on. So are understanding their wobbles, and how to approach rebuilding trust. (Yes! Trust can be rebuilt, they remind.) The authors are also realists and outline how to think about anticipated objections and roadblocks. As a bonus, readers/leaders can develop a forward-looking culture that will someday allow you to pivot from reactive operations “firefighting” to confident, proactive “fire prevention.” And if you’re technically not a “leader” today? Move Fast details perspective and approaches that will hopefully inspire ways you can still contribute to making things better. I have read and heard co-author Frances Frei—many times—share how it’s her goal to democratize the fundamentals behind her life’s work. Move Fast’s gifts, wisdom, and insights should be embraced in that spirit. Each of us—and our organizations and our people—will only be the better for it.
Review: Interesting yet high level playbook on improving corporate culture and modus operandi - I like the five day agenda setup and the fluent writing. Nevertheless, with my three decades of middle management experience, I assure you the real problem always comes from the CEO whose short-sightedness, overconfidence, cronyism, personal bias and so on kill it all. Pathetic. p.s. Below please find some favorite passages of mine fyi. Ten organizational trust pitfalls: 1. Aversion to making choices 2. Reliance on heroic employees 3. Shiny object syndrome 4.
