Dialogic Organization Development: The Theory and Practice of Transformational Change by Gervase Bushe

A Dynamic New Approach to Organizational Change
Dialogic Organization Development is a compelling alternative to the classical action research approach to planned change. Organizations are seen as fluid, socially constructed realities that are continuously created through conversations and images. Leaders and consultants can help foster change by encouraging disruptions to taken-for-granted ways of thinking and acting and the use of generative images to stimulate new organizational conversations and narratives. This book offers the first comprehensive introduction to Dialogic Organization Development with chapters by a global team of leading scholar-practitioners addressing both theoretical foundations and specific practices.
Gervase R. Bushe, Ph.D. is president of Discovery & Design, Inc., a consulting firm serving clients globally, and professor of business administration at Simon Fraser University. His clients have included Shell Oil, General Motors, BC Telecom, and the Canadian government. The co-author of Parallel Learning Structures, Bushe has published award-winning articles in such publications as the Journal of Applied Behavioural Science and the Organization Development Journal.
