The Geometry of Strategy
Keidel’s work offers a framework for integrating strategic planning and strategic thinking that takes advantage of the strengths of both. The key to this work is his application of various geometries – 2X2 matrices and triangles – that help leaders and strategists in organizations create a structure for their thinking and planning.
Seeing Organizational Patterns
Robert Keidel explains that most organizational issues are a balance of three variables: individual autonomy, hierarchical control, and spontaneous cooperation. By learning to frame issues as trade-offs among these design variables, one can see underlying patterns that previously had not been visible - and thereby make more intelligent analyses, choices, and commitments than would otherwise be possible. Seeing Organizational Patterns converts organizational design into an art form of triangular patterns. Featuring vivid examples and consulting-based cases, this book offers a wealth of theoretical insights and practical lessons. Keidel provides a set of conceptual lenses that enables you to see organizations more clearly, systematically, and imaginatively than ever before.

Leading the way into the personal knowledge bases of every day practitioners is the third book in the Translating Coaching Codes of Practice series. Our latest edited volume continues to be packed with refreshingly candid and insightful experiences.

Their insights and patterns of practice will be valuable to anyone seeking to make sense of how their coaching approach works in their own space. Importantly, the real knowledge of how coaching works lives in the heads of practitioners.
