More Than Words empowers youth who are in foster care, court-involved, homeless or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. MTW believes that when system-involved youth are challenged with authentic and increasing responsibilities in a business setting, and are given high expectations and a culture of support, they can and will address personal barriers to success, create concrete action plans for their lives, and become contributing members of society. More Than Words began as an online bookselling training program for youth in DCF custody in 2004 and opened its vibrant bookstore on Moody St in Waltham in 2005 and added its Starbucks coffee bar in 2008. MTW replicated its model in the South End of Boston in 2011, thereby doubling the number of youth served annually.

From the rear cover

This book brings together the best ideas from the Harvard Business Review on managing change in a business environment that feels like it is always moving at fast forward. It features two provocative essays written by James Champy and Nitin Nohria especially for this collection, urging managers to seize the opportunities for change and to set ambitious goals for the business results they want to achieve. In the 14 HBR articles and interviews selected by Champy and Nohria, Fast Forward offers a wealth of ideas for embracing change and using it to your company's greatest advantage. Champy and Nohria's pieces frame the collection and put the forces of change in perspective. They reflect on the central truths of all business change, assess popular methods of change management, predict the shape of organizations in the future, and discuss the leadership qualities - including authenticity and integrity - that are vital to success in the new environment.
