 Toronto, September 8 - Change is not news. What is news is the dramatically accelerated pace at which change is transforming every aspect of our lives. People are inundated, overwhelmed, and stressed by constant change. What they need are practical solutions that will help them cope with, and thrive in, a world that seems to spin faster and faster with each passing day.

Jim Clemmer's newest book (his seventh) Growing @ the Speed of Change is both timely and timeless, providing  concrete how-to solutions that combine inspiration with practical action plans -  "inspir-action!"  This practical guide, takes the tools of personal growth and development and applies them, so individuals and teams can learn to accept - and even welcome - the challenges and opportunities a rapidly changing world creates.
What distinguishes Growing @ the Speed of Change from other self-help books is that it takes readers on a journey from philosophy and motivation through to highly practical application.

Its magazine format is unique too, consisting of short chapters propelled by Jim's famously conversational narrative. Throughout the book, readers will find interesting sidebars, pithy quotes and amusing anecdotes - backed up by over 30 years of research and practical experience.  It's a book specifically written for those who don't have time to read!
Growing @ the Speed of Change is a cross-market book, exploring both the personal (visualization techniques to help combat illness, for instance) and professional (do you understand why your boss is 'bad'?) aspects of what it means to live in an environment of constant change.

"This is an excellent handbook to prepare people to thrive through change."
Jim Estill, Former CEO of SYNNEX Canada and RIM Board Member

Clemmer, whose books have sold over 400,000 copies, is a popular professional public speaker (over 2,500 presentations) who brings energy and insights to the never-ending nature of change. He has given hundreds of interviews in the past three decades. He can address a broad range of leadership, change, workplace or business challenges, and career issues.
