Editorial Reviews

Since its release in 1990, Peter M. Senge's bestselling The Fifth Discipline has converted readers to its innovative business principles of the "learning organization," personal mastery, and systems thinking. Published nearly a decade later, Dance of Change provides a formidable response to businesspeople wondering how to make his programs stick. He outlines potential obstacles (such as initiating transformation, personal fear and anxiety, and measuring the unmeasurable) and proposes ways to turn these obstacles into sources of improvement. Senge--with considerable help from the team who worked on the follow-up development manual, The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook--presents an insider's account of long-term maintenance efforts at General Electric, Harley-Davidson, the U.S. Army, and others who are learning organization, along with experience-based suggestions and exercises for individuals and teams. "We are seeking to understand how people nurture the reinforcing growth processes that naturally enable an organization to evolve and change," Senge explains, "and how they tend to the limiting processes that can impede or stop that growth." --Howard Rothman
From AudioFile
Peter Senge and company are the hottest thing in the theory of business change these days. THE DANCE OF CHANGE describes ways to initiate and maintain long-term systemic changes in the corporate environment. This abridged audiotape would serve as a good summary or review of the material presented in the book. Speaking in an informal, conversational style, Senge introduces each principle. The introduction is followed by another reader who develops the idea. However, there are many big ideas here, and the examples leave the listener breathlessly trying to take a few notes. This listener wishes the publisher had followed Senge's advice–to take time, allow for thought and a throrough exploration of ideas–and had produced this audiobook in an unabridged edition read at a more leisurely pace.
