description: Advanced Strategies for Today's Transformational Leaders To truly transform an organization, say the authors of this groundbreaking book, leaders must first transform their own mindset. Beyond Change Management-the only book specifically about the interaction of leadership style, mindset, and the change process-revolutionizes leaders' approach to transformational change. Shattering the myth that transformation can be managed, this book  part of the Practicing OD Series  offers you new directions and ways of thinking and behaving that are essential for successful change. Its unique approach brings organization development (OD) into the mainstream of leaders' approaches to change, expanding and integrating the fields of OD, leadership, change management, and consciousness. You'll also get ready-to-use worksheets, questionnaires, guidelines, and assessment instruments. "Powerful business solutions to the current chaos facing many organizations today.
