Full disclosure: I’m biased because I had the joy and honor of being a sounding

the best framing of how to work with leaders and organizations seeking change

that is simplicity on the other side of complexity. It captures a nuanced, 
multi-dimensional view of consulting work for introducing and integrating 
self-organization into an organization.

In the process, she also drops gems, like offering the most cogent,

leave that as a teaser to say if you want to know more, get the book. (It’s in 
a section called Endings and outcomes in Chapter 3. Beginnings and Endings.)

Give yourself or a friend a gift for the new year.

Best of the season,
Peggy

our own shares her wisdom in the form of a book, with the collaboration and

Just ordered the book. Curious to dive in. Bought it as an online book. Will 
come to get a physical one, one day dear Tova.
I will spread the word in my network, the intro pages and knowing you inspires 
me to share this opportunity immediately.
Virtual hugs to you all

[OSList] A phenomenal new book by one of our own: Initiating and Inviting Generative Change

2021-12-16 Thread Peggy Holman via OSList
Hi my OS list friends,

I want to “out” Tova Averbuch, who has given us all a gift. She recently 
published the brilliant Initiating and Inviting Generative Change: Entry and 
Contracting for Emergent Outcomes in Results Driven Organizations 
.

Full disclosure: I’m biased because I had the joy and honor of being a sounding 
board as the book was born. It gave me a ring side seat to witnessing emerge 
the best framing of how to work with leaders and organizations seeking change 
that I’ve seen. Tova provides stories and a jaw-droppingly elegant framework 
that is simplicity on the other side of complexity. It captures a nuanced, 
multi-dimensional view of consulting work for introducing and integrating 
self-organization into an organization.

In the process, she also drops gems, like offering the most cogent, 
myth-busting explanation of that oh-so-frustrating complaint that so many of us 
hear: yes, it was a great meeting but nothing happened afterwards.  I’ll just 
leave that as a teaser to say if you want to know more, get the book. (It’s in 
a section called Endings and outcomes in Chapter 3. Beginnings and Endings.)

Give yourself or a friend a gift for the new year.

Best of the season,
