Klappentext "Beyond the walls is a battle cry that mobilizes. . . .The walls that surround us, protect us, and embrace us can also inhibit movement, limit understanding, restrict engagement, and diminish our relevance in the wider world. I realized that my walls, and the walls of leaders everywhere, were not only the walls of current policy, practice, procedure, and assumption but also the walls of the past-safe, familiar, and secure. This recognition was just the first of several as we worked through a process to take ourselves and our organizations beyond the walls to new levels of performance and positive changes in the lives of people." --from the introduction by Frances Hesselbein The Editors Frances Hesselbein is chairman of the board of governors of the Peter F.
