I integrate research into my work as a consultant and educator. Most of the publications listed here discuss the value of doing so and the ways action research can be practiced, especially ‘Four Contexts of Action Research’ and ‘Creating a Colorful Model of Change’. About half also share specific outcomes of such research, particularly in work on complex issues.
