Who Moved My Cheese?

A ninety-page parable about mice and change that has sold tens of millions and is widely mocked in intellectual circles. Both reactions miss the point. Johnson is not writing theory; he is handing you a pocket-sized image to carry into rooms where change is about to happen and people are refusing to see it. Product direction lives in those rooms. The book is useful not for what it teaches but for the shared vocabulary it gives a team — "who moved my cheese?" becomes shorthand for a conversation that is otherwise painful to open.
