We transform by doing new things, not just thinking them. So transformation by adopting practice thoughtfully is a good way to change ourselves and perhaps the only way.

As for transforming organization, I think it’s a good way to make money and that after the wind of transformation passes through, the organization remains. I expanded on related thoughts i <http://ronjeffries.com/articles/015-sep/indiv-inter/>n this article on individuals and interactions <http://ronjeffries.com/articles/015-sep/indiv-inter/>.

I’d like to be wrong and surely there may be exceptions.
