Reframing Organizations: Artistry, Choice, and Leadership, 7th Edition
Reframing Organizations provides time-tested guidance for more effective organizational leadership. Rooted in decades of social science research across multiple disciplines, Bolman and Deal's four-frame model has continued to evolve since its conception over twenty-five years ago. This new seventh edition will be updated to include additional coverage of cross-sector collaboration, generational differences, virtual environments, globalization, sustainability, and communication across cultures. The instructor's guide will be expanded to provide additional tools for the classroom, including chapter summary tip sheets, mini-assessments, Bolman & Deal podcasts, and more. These recent revisions reflect the intersection of listener recommendations and the current leadership environment, resulting in a renewed practicality and even greater alignment with everyday application. The seventh edition combines the latest research from organizational theory, organizational behavior, psychology, sociology, political science, and more. It will be updated to include advances in the field since the sixth edition, with new case studies for each frame, and will address the COVID-19 pandemic.

How Great Leaders Think: The Art of Reframing
Reframing Leadership translates Bolman s influential four-frame model of leadership and organizations developed in their bestselling Jossey-Bass Book, Reframing Organizations: Artistry, Choice and Leadership, (over 300,000 copies sold in 4 editions) into a thought-provoking and practical guide for leaders in business and other organizations. This book will offer leaders a template and guide for understanding four major dimensions of organizational life: structure, people, politics, and symbols (or culture) that will enable them to decode the messy world in which they live, see a broader range of options, and find more powerful and elegant strategies for leading.

Engagement: Transforming Difficult Relationships at Work
In Engagement, bestselling authors Lee G. Bolman and Joan V. Gallos offer a compelling workplace parable to illustrate the strategies and skills needed to make unworkable relationships positive and productive. The audiobook introduces the four-step SURE model, which offers rules of engagement for staying alert, grounded, and productive when faced with the prickly, taxing, or toxic folks who block progress, weigh you down, undermine your confidence, leave chaos in their wake, and cause a disproportionate share of headaches and sleepless nights. Bolman and Gallos advocate that deeply engaging oneself, one another, and the situation is the best route to transform difficult relationships. They show how to unhook from the anger, stress, and frustration that limit your ability to see and appreciate better possibilities. Working with difficult people-a problem employee, bully boss, chronically complaining coworker, mean-spirited associate, Machiavellian teammate, or troubled colleague- all take a combination of strategy, confidence, determination, and skill. The authors show how to apply the four-step SURE model for overcoming the obstacles and frustrations that difficult people present. Because it is written as a parable, Engagement offers you the opportunity to slow down and think about your reactions, compare your solutions with others, and view events through multiple perspectives-your own, the authors, and the characters in the story. Engagement helps to better understand yourself, respond more effectively in your workplace, and handle challenges in ways that bring out the best in you and others.
