I'm reading "Managing Transitions" today. It is a decent book with a lot of general information in it but nothing earth shaking. I did like the following paragraph on purpose.
"The kind of purpose you will need in order to launch a new beginning must come from within the organization - from its will, abilities, resources, and character. To be more specific, it must arise from the way in which these inherent qualities interact with the situation in which the organization finds itself. It is that interaction that spells opportunity in a changing world. If your purpose is simply copied from another organization, or if it belies the real situation in which the organization finds itself, it won't do its job." Managing Transitions by William Bridges, page 63
