Launching Mobilize! Dancing In The World
Finally, after several years of collecting, archiving, compiling, editing, and reviewing Chauncey Bell's lifetime of work, the wait is over. I am thrilled to announce the imminent release of Chauncey's book Mobilize: Dancing in the World, the first of 12 volumes we have mapped out to explore the wilderness of enterprise, listening, and the design of new practices. The book is now published and available on Amazon.
Mobilize! Dancing in the World is about the practice of building new practices. New practices, in effect new ways of dancing in the world, bring new worlds. In our schools of business and administration people learn about management (keeping things stable), leadership (creating new instabilities), innovation (creating new stuff), and ‘change management,’ which is about keeping the ship afloat while in the midst of change.
Building new practices requires skill in each of these disciplines. Yet it is not the same as, nor can it be replaced by, any one or all of them together.
The stark simplicity and pragmatism the reader will find in this book have altered worlds, enterprises, and the lives of countless people. This and subsequent volumes in the Mobilize! series are written for those responsible for the future of our enterprises.
The reader will find here maps and practical structures for observing, acting, and building skills and sensibilities for leading and participating in a wide range of programs, institutions, and worlds.
Mobilize! - Dancing In The World; Questions, Commitments, and Contingencies, is now available at Amazon. Consultants, Coaches, Leaders of Enterprises, Entrepreneurs, and Manager of Important Missions, get your copy today.
