After years of steady growth, a drought has sharply reduced the clan's resources, and deadly vulture attacks have increased. As things keep getting worse, the har­mony of the clan is shattered. The executive team quarrels about possible solutions, and sugges­tions from frontline workers face a soul-crushing response: \"That's not how we do it here \" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSo Nadia, a bright and adventurous meerkat, hits the road in search of new ideas to help her trou­bled clan.

But not everything in this small clan is as perfect as it seems at first. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCan Nadia figure out how to combine the best of both worlds--a large, disciplined, well-managed clan and a small, informal, inspiring clan--before it's too late? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book distills Kotter's decades of experi­ence and award-winning research to reveal why organizations rise and fall, and how they can rise again in the face of adversity.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Kotter\u003c\/b\u003e, professor emeritus at Harvard Business School, is often called the world's fore­most authority on leadership and change.
