Collective Learning for Transformational Change : A Guide to Collaborative Action

This book offers a practical guide for those seeking to design and deliver a strategic transformational change process. The vehicle for the change management is a collective learning spiral which has been trialed in a wide range of situations. These situations include people who wish to develop their own thinking, work on teambuilding, initiate whole-of-community change, restructure an organization, offer professional development, or take part in policy development.

"I love this concept of celebration of collective learning" - Jackie Ohlin, Foreword of the Guide, p. V.

"Social learning is a slippery subject. It is by nature an open (hard to delimit) process. The authors navigate these complexities wisely using the compass of experience. The Guide is practice-oriented both in its origin and perspective. The conceptual piece of the Guide supports the methodology, illuminates the reasoning behind the method, and helps the reader to understand what social learning is about. A groundbreaking reference for those interested in working with social learning." - Sebastião Ferreira
