| Editorial Review |
| Transforming Work was the first book to explore the concept of transformational change, its principles, dynamics, and technologies. In 1982, many organizational consultants began using the concept of "transformation" because they found it more descriptive of their work than the concept of "development." Changes in organizational life and processes had become more complex, and the outcomes less certain, than the traditional practice of "Organizational Development" could address. This Second Edition of Transforming Work contains the original collection of 17 chapters from these pioneering consultants, plus their updated reflections on their work at the turn of the century. |

| Customer Review |
: I use these books in my work as a facilitator.  |
| "Transforming Work" and "Transforming Leadership," both edited by John D. Adams, are among my most thumbed books. |
|
: Insightful, very well organized research on transformation!  |
| I read and researched this text for a University class and "Transforming Work" is excellent. Providing the reader with thought-provoking,insightful ideas. It introduces managerial concepts to change and transform the work environment towards a more positive,productive and ultimately more profitable direction. It challenges old corporate paradigms and explores alternative thinking that is based on rational and insightful thinking. Its a refreshing and great read! |
|
| frank@tmn.com: This 2nd Edition of a classic will be very popular |
| I'm one of the co-authors of a chapter in this book, but even if I were not I would still recommend this new edition highly for anyone interested in organization development and the management of change. Each chapter contains an updated preface by the original authors and these alone worth the price the price. |
