The Forest Succession Principle

from Change by Attraction · host Esther Derby

What do forests have to do with organizational change? The ecological process of forest succession shows us that new plant communities take hold when the environment is ripe for them. That each new plant community, in turn alters the environment—making it possible for another plant community to take hold.  And I think that is a very useful way to think about making sustainable changes in organizations.  Visit my website www.estherderby.com. Sign up for my newsletter to receive information about workshops, online classes, and more.7 Rules for Positive Productive Change is available on Barnes and Noble, Amazon, or from the publisher.
