David Peat's latest book provides a clear answer: How to exercise more effective, creative and non-invasive action from the local to the international level. Gentle Action shows ways in which businesses can respond more effectively to a changing market place: How organizations, policy groups and communities can grow more flexible, responsive and sensitive to the world around them. he book will be an invaluable resource for everyone from CEOs, policy makers, community leaders, opinion makers, aid organizations, business groups, consultants and politicians as well as teachers and parents. It shows just how and why things can go wrong when well meaning but inappropriate actions are taken. It provides a wide variety of highly successful examples of Gentle Actions in operation and how the creative intervention of a single person can end up being more effective than an aid program organized by a multimillion-dollar organization. Each chapter presents a series of questions and challenges for the readers leading to ways in which they can bring creative change to their community or organization. - from Amzon
