Features: Any process of continuous, deep transformation requires a fundamental change in our way of thinking. We need to recognize the nature of the growth process (the force that drives our efforts) and how to stimulate it. We also need to understand the forces that hinder progress and the challenges they present, so that we can develop feasible strategies to address these challenges. We must grasp the "dance of change," the inevitable interplay between growth processes and limiting processes. This is the law of nature. We either go with the flow or go against it. From an ecological perspective, this book depicts how organizations can initiate deep transformation and overcome the various challenges they may encounter in subsequent stages.
