Author Tim Lalonde has created an Aide-mémoire for Change Leaders. In his own words here is a description of the book:

The Why

The reason for this body of work was to leave for others a field guide for their travels. In the early days of being a mudpuppy (Infantry Officer) you were given a small white flip paperback book to assist in learning your craft. As you may have figured out it was called an Aide-mémoire. You relied on this little white flip book heavily in the beginning, then over time, you used it less and less for the knowledge was becoming muscle memory. By repeatedly referring to the baseline and drawing on it consistently, you were able to focus on the why of the mission and less on the mechanics of the how of the mission. That is the goal of this engagement, to provide a valuable condensed body of information for you, the Change Leader, to implement the vision of your engagement by way of setting goals and tasks to meet those goals. The “how” are the tasks, the “what” are the goals and the “why” is the vision.

The What

The main goals of this engagement are to make you more aware of your surroundings by providing you with what you need to know to be successful as Change Leader.

If the why is for you to be a better Change Leader, then the what are the key goals to that end

1. What do you want to be as the Change Leader.

2. What will be your approach?

3. What will be the culture you foster to achieve those goals?

4. What will be your values that others will rely on for their success?

The goal of this Aide-mémoire is to mentor you to be a better leader in general, a better leader in your professional life and finally for those Information Technology people, to be a better Information Technology leader.
