Building the Bridge As You Walk On It: A Guide for Leading Change (J-B US non-Franchise Leadership) (9780787971120): Robert E. Quinn: Books. “Quinn’s work captures a crucial truth about great leadership—that it is about who we are and not what we do. In facing our fears and harnessing our uniqueness, we bring forth the capacity for inspired leadership and for enduring change. Robert Quinn is a gifted storyteller. This is his best book to date.”—Peter J. Frost, Edgar F. Kaiser Professor of Organizational Behavior, Sauder School of Business, University of British Columbia, and author of Toxic Emotions at Work“Quinn's fundamental state of leadership is fundamentally uncommon. Rather than focusing on how to lead others, he has served up authentic insights on how leaders can best lead themselves.”—Jim Haduan, CEO, Root Learning, Inc.“Read this book only if you are willing to address the fear that keeps you from leadership, and from profound change in yourself and others.”—Allan R. Cohen, Distinguished Professor of Global Leadership, Babson College, and coauthor of Power-Up: Transforming Organizations Through Shared Leadership“Quinn takes us to the chasm where deep change is lived and led—then guides us over it.  Practical scholarship. Masterful teaching.”—Philip Mirvis, coauthor of To the Desert and Back: The Story of One of the Most Dramatic Business Transformations on Record“A gem of a book, as wise and practical a guide on individual and organizational transformation as you’ll find anywhere.”—Warren Bennis, university professor, University of Southern California and coauthor of Geeks and Geezers: How Era, Values, and Defining Moments Shape Leaders“The process of becoming a leader or revitalizing yourself is chaotic and frightening. Through many inspirational stories in this book, readers will find the courage to embrace a truly transformative change.”—Richard E. Boyatzis, professor and chair of the Department of 0rganizational Behavior, Case Western Reserve University, and coauthor of Primal Leadership: Realizing the Power of Emotional Intelligence“Prepare yourself for a journey into intellectual, emotional, and spiritual integrity—a journey this will span the remaining course of one's life.”—Allen C. Bluedorn, author, The Human Organization of Time“Bob Quinn makes exquisite use of real life experiences in such a way that his book is engaging as well as profound. It speaks to me directly.”—Ricardo B. Levy, founder, chairman of the board, Catalytica Energy Systems, Inc.“This book is not about superheroes, but about how each one of us how the power to create positive change – if only we are willing to see and step into our own capabilities.”—Professor Sim B Sitkin, director, Fuqua-Coach K Center on Leadership and Ethics, Duke University“For someone who has struggled for 25 years with change personally and professionally—as an internal change agent,  external consultant, and academic—Building the Bridge as You Walk on It provides a profound integration of the self/other/organizational contexts and a timely reminder that all change is self-change.”—Mike McGrath, vice president of consulting services, Executive Development Associates“I picked up Building the Bridge... on a gray, rainy, California morning thinking I would peruse a few pages before a nap. I laid the manuscript down only when the last page had been turned many hours later. No nap! Instead a bright awakening to insight and wisdom regarding leadership that Robert Quinn lucidly structures through stories carefully paired with precise conceptualization.”—Andre' L. Delbecq, Thomas J. and Kathleen L.
