"...well written, thoughtful and thought provoking ... offers leaders and scholars
of change a considered opportunity to explore the transitions along the continuum
from belief to knowledge that can lead to sustainable change."
-Sue Dopson, Said Business School, University of Oxford
This book shows how good leaders can evolve and sustain an adaptive culture that
develops knowledge through purposeful human interaction. It explores key dynamics
of learning, considers the diversity of beliefs present in any group, and demonstrates
ways to explore and encourage the potential of both the group and individuals
within the group. It demonstrates the importance of unearthing beliefs to find the roots and persistent
influences that preserve them.
