Change is not a matter of willpower, says the head of an executive coaching and consulting company. In providing guidance on how to identify and overcome negative ingrained habits (e.g., being overcritical, a workaholic, a pushover), Blumenthal outlines his Circles of Strength model: raise awareness, build support, take action. The book includes exercises, suggested reading, and resources for clinical addictions not addressed here. (Annotation ©2007 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
