and find new life.

metaphor here is that humanorganizations are an open book. The
organizations story is a compilation
of the past, present, and future and iscontinually open to interpretation just
like a good piece of poetry.

momentum for change requires large
amounts of positive affect and social
bonding. To a large extentorganizations and people change
easier under an environment of hope,
inspiration and sheer joy. And when
they can collaborate with one another,
the process stays positive and
innovative.
