Product Description
Product Description
In this book, Kahane draws on his amazingly rich experience working with corporate, government and civil society leaders all over the world to explain why our ordinary way of solving problems—expert-driven, piecemeal, and best practice—cannot work for solving the complex problems we face
In this book, Kahane draws on his amazingly rich experience working with corporate, government and civil society leaders all over the world to explain why our ordinary way of solving problems—expert-driven, piecemeal, and best practice—cannot work for solving the complex problems we face
These problems include our communities and organizations, and why we need to learn an extra-ordinary way that is inclusive, systemic, and generative, and that demands of us, in essence, extraordinarily open talking and extraordinarily open listening.
