As you will discover, many of their accounts of their experiments have been included, with their permission (and under fictional names), in the following pages as illustrations and as encouragements to engage in the process of action inquiry in your own daily activities.

We would also like to thank the various companies and their senior managements in Europe and America whose transformational stories appear in the pages that follow. ...
