Relazione

"Transports the reader from the safety of the classroom into the complex, unpredictable and often hazardous world that they describe as the consultant jungle. It is a great resource for graduate level OD programs, consultant training courses, AND corporate managers who hire consultants." (C. Patrick Fleenor, Ph.D., director, International Business Programs, Albers School of Business and Economics, Seattle University)

"I have been waiting for years for someone to write a book that covers the art of OD consulting form A to Z, and it has finally happened! It is valuable reading for consultants of all types. . .and a must read for OD consultants, regardless of their level of experience." (Don Van Eynde, professor of management, Trinity University; past editor, OD Practitioner)
