We all need to get better at our Change Mastery

You don’t need a big life event to activate your Change Mastery. We need these skills everyday: adjusting to a new routine, learning a skill, navigating a tough conversation. Each time you cycle through Pause, Mess, Play, Try, Restart, you build your capacity for change.
