Saying No is the first in a series of “user's manuals” for the five fundamental declarations: no, yes, I don’t know, gratitude and forgiveness.

- 10 Themes and Variations for Postmodern Leaders and their Coaches

- How do we know that something is true when it's all in the telling and hearing of stories?
- If many significant organizational changes are irreversible, how "inevitable" is growth?
- Organizations are both unpredictable and conservative; what leverage points that can set in motion positive change?
