I read Changing Human Services Organizations many years ago in social work school. Now as a congregational rabbi with a specialty as an Intentional Interim Rabbi supporting synagogues in transition, I remembered many of the lessons herein, so I decided to reread it. What a gem! It offers tremendous insight! It speaks to the importance of Partialization, that is breaking up larger tasks into smaller ones and identifying and seeking the Point of Maximum Reverberation, those smaller goals that will yield great impact. An essential read for anyone wanting to be an agent of change!
