I have been fascinated by change for as long as I can remember. It has been central to my work since the mid-1970’s.

I support diverse groups to face complex issues turning presentation into conversation and passivity into participation. In The Change Handbook, my co-authors and I profile 61 practices that engage people in creating their desired future.

My award-winning Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity provides a roadmap for tackling complex challenges through stories, principles, and practices.

I co-founded Journalism That Matters, a nonprofit that supports and equips the adventurers who transform relationships between communities and journalism for a strong, inclusive democracy.
