Leadership for Change and School Reform
This book examines the global influences, the differing national and state contexts which shape leadership, the impact of local pressures and priorities, as well as how leadership is exercised within schools themselves.
Kilmann-Saxton Culture-Gap Survey
The Kilmann-Saxton Culture-Gap Survey is a self-report assessment that takes only fifteen minutes to complete and another ten minutes to graph the Culture-Gap Profile of a work group of five to fifteen members This profile pinoints the difference between actual and desired cultural norms. Additional Culture-Gap Profiles can be calculated for larger work units, including the entire organization. Following completion of these graphs, the members of one or more work groups can begin discussing how to close the largest Culture-Gaps that were identified in four areas: Task Support, Task Innovation, Social Relationships, and Personal Freedom. Previously, unconscious, unstated "rules of the game" (actual norms) often undermined everyone's best efforts and intentions. Once the these culture-gaps have been closed (or at least brought within an acceptable threshold), members can effectively proceed with other change initiatives and improvement programs.
Organization Development
French and Bell explore the improvement of organizations through planned, systematic, long-range efforts focused on the organization's culture and its human and social processes. They present a concise but comprehensive exposition of the theory, practice and research related to organization development.

Work, Death, and Life Itself
This unusual and thought-provoking work questions current mainstream approaches to organizational psychology. Grounded in organizational symbolism the author depicts the potential meaning of work in the broader context of life and death. Thus Siever's book is a fundamental critique of motivation, participation and leadership research. With human mortality in mind, organization and management appear in a different light: motivation as a surrogate for meaning, participation and management as a quarrel about immortality, and leadership as a perpetuation of immaturity. Sievers advocates a "management of wisdom".
