Transforming--How Managers Become Leaders addresses the issues pertinent to both first -time supervisors and leaders at every level. While anyone may read and gain from the content, Transforming is designed to be used as a facilitative tool by groups through the generation of discussion and creative conflict. It stresses a critical thinking approach that can be applied to leadership issues and values using narratives from the author''s personal experiences and historical references. Each of the narratives is an actual event and is approached from an analytical perspective in order to build a discussion around the values and actions of leaders. The goal of the work is to articulate the differences between mere managers and those who seek to transform the workplace through leadership of human capital.
