ABSTRACT
This chapter offers examples of application of Kurt Lewin's theory and methods so that, the reader, are as equipped as possible to pursue their own planned change. Meanwhile, notice that T-groups aren’t mentioned directly in “Peter’s Strategy”. There are, of course, no simultaneous control groups in a normal OD intervention. It’s a shame that Lewin wasn’t able to do his own experiments in leadership development by applying T-groups to industry. The non-blaming forced-listening dialogue that ensues is in itself transformational, although without a Lewian group decision process it would be a waste of time. In true Lewinian style yet another restraining force – management doing all the thinking, planning, communicating, and implementing – has been shifted through the intervention method itself.
