  • Change: Closing Thoughts and Transition

    In some ways, this may seem like an abrupt left turn in terms of blog content. However, I’m not sure how much can really be addressed in terms of how people change. All that would be left is specific application, and apart from case studies, that is not particularly feasible. Too short excurses are in…

  • Change: Theory and Practice
