The Systems Constellation as an Instrument for Change Agents

In his book Kai Bulling proposes the systems constellation as an instrument for change agents. An innovative general model of the systems constellation as a management intervention is constructed that presents the method as a synergetic combination of functional elements. This creates a new level of transparency that will support practitioners and managers in understanding its benefits and challenges as well as tailoring interventions to a specific case.
