The journey occurs on the seas of anxiety and passion, which threaten to sweep an organization towards either paralysis and depression or a hyperlife of perpetual hysterical motion. On this journey, the consultant serves as the chief advisory navigator, helping to guide the ship to circumvent the dangerous rocks as the organization zigs and zags though the waters. While at times the organization may find itself circling in a vortex, trapped in cyclical duplication and potential disappearance, there exists the underlying assurance that transformation is occurring, has occurred, and will continue throughout the journey to transformaCtion. David Gutmann points out that this is a never-ending journey for the organization, even after the work of the consultants has ended.Psychology, IndustrialManagementPsychological aspectsOrganizational behaviorPsychology, Industrial.ManagementPsychological aspects.Organizational behavior.158.7302.3/5Gutmann David1950-1791646MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQOkUBOOK9910967969803321From transformation to transformaCtion4329352UNINA
