World Needs Dialogue! Four--Putting Dialogue to Work

This volume contains abundant evidence of Putting Dialogue to Work in commercial, governmental, and social organisations to the benefit of a wide range of activities like education, health, community welfare and public safety. The 39 Case Studies were considered at the fourth annual conference of the Academy of Professional Dialogue and describe work designed and delivered by 58 authors working across the globe - in the USA, UK, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Argentina, South Africa and Sierra Leone. The pre-written case studies are accompanied by extracts of their conversations with conference participants as well as postscripts with reflections about their ongoing learning from first doing to work to sharing it with professional colleagues at the conference and later reflection.
