They emphasize the \"personhood\" of the consultant and client, the relevance of \"feel\" and intuition combined with fact and technique, and the importance of real people doing real things in real time holistically. In addition to these core ideas, the authors outline new viewpoints that are especially relevant in today's rapidly changing world. They explain that quick-fix linear approaches are not likely to bring substantial lasting results and OD must be rooted in the vast knowledge available about the human condition-recognizing the complexity of real life. They also show how value is the essential cornerstone of organization development.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of Tables and Figures.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Foreword to the Series.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Introduction to the Series.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Statement of the Board.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Preface.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 1.
