Transformational Learning - readable, interesting, relevant.

Transformational Learning is the art of orchestrating change in an organization so that specific, measurable goals are reached. "Transformational Learning", by Daniel Tobin, is a practical guide to the subject, grounded in relevant theory, and aimed at the people who have to make the change effort successful. It is approachable from the view of senior management, or from middle managers who don't have visionary or committed leadership, and even from first line managers who have a very small sphere of influence. The chapters cover all relevant topics, and offer a message: change *can* happen, change *can* be successful - with thought, planning, measurement -- and with this book.
