With Who Moved My Cheese? Dr. Spencer Johnson realizes the need for finding the language and tools to deal with change--an issue that makes all of us nervous and uncomfortable.
Most people are fearful of change because they don't believe they have any control over how or when it happens to them. Since change happens either to the individual or by the individual, Spencer Johnson shows us that what matters most is the attitude we have about change.

SFC (Join to see), I read it about 15 years ago, right after the telecom bubble burst. MCI had just bought out CompuServe and was in the process of merging with WorldCom. Lots of layoffs were in the works, so our division directors pushed this down as mandatory reading for mid-level managers and encouraged us to share its principles with our subordinates.
It's just as relevant today as it was then. It's a quick, fun read that I'd recommend for everyone.

I did read it, SFC (Join to see). It's a classic. It's been a while since I read it, so I think I might re-visit it. They say that change is the only reliable constant, and I think that's usually true, so this book is a good one to have recently read. The principles are timeless, and the way the author presents the story is very clever.

I can see re-reading it would be good. Everyone that I talk to about it thought of a different example for their situation, So I can see each time you re-read it would have a different view for you as your life changes.
