Engage!

Engage! is the Lonely Planet for organizational change. This practical and accessible travel guide for change agents offers a unique mix of scientific and practical insights. After all, action without knowledge is reckless and knowledge without action is impactless. Engage! offers help and encouragement at every stage of the change adventure, centering on shared inspiration, co-creation, experimentation, and especially on how to quickly get down to ‘learning to learn’ together. The authors will take you on a gripping journey, reinforced by vibrant visuals, surprising insights, and engaging examples from international practices. Along the way, they will provide insight into the attitude and constructive behavior needed to keep the ship and its crew on course, avoid black holes, and discover new worlds.
