"Status and significance within organizations are often advertised, not simply by the size or position of a person's office, but by the size of their bookcase and the number of business books on display. Look closely, however, and most remain pristine, their pages crisply blocked and as solid as the day the printer's guillotine fell.
Here's a book that'll be different: destined to be endlessly thumbed and dog-eared by real people engaged in transformation. They couldn't be in better hands. The authors are real people, bringing wisdom, insight and hard-won experience to that most difficult of tasks, leading transformation."
Mike King, Ogilvy and Mather, London, UK

"Professors Scott Isaksen and Joe Tidd remind us that change and success are ultimately human endeavors. They tear down the distinctions between leadership, management, innovation and creativity that lead us to focus on characteristics rather than character. Most importantly, Isaksen and Tidd offer a rigorous integrated model for creative leadership and provide concrete ideas and suggestions, bringing that model alive. This is an important book."
Eugene J. McAllister, President, University of Great Falls, Montana, USA

"As someone who has been doing research on organizational climate and leadership for the past forty years, I have particular interest in finding ways to stimulate and utilize the creative capabilities of people who work within organizations. This is a key challenge for those who seek both radical and incremental change. I am impressed that this book offers broader and deeper insights into such a relevant topic, and believe that it will be an excellent resource for both practitioners and scholars."
Göran Ekvall, Professor Emeritus, Organizational Psychology, Stockholm, Sweden

"As the CEO operating a small business with a global footprint, I can not emphasize enough the importance that deliberate process, creative climate, and leadership are helping us in managing our fast growing, ever changing business. The authors provide the platinum standard for taking a systemic approach to change."
Lorne Smith, CEO, Berenson, Inc. Buffalo, New York USA
