The tone of the account is philosophical, whilst being light and dense." I appreciated his approach of simultaneously mingling his thoughts about his work and his private life. This manifested that he was applying to himself what he was professing to his clients: know how to manage the inescapable uniqueness of your personality, at work as well as in your daily life." -- B Lescoeur, Chairman of London Electricity Group (1999-2002), from the Preface"For him it is essential that the interpretation must transform understanding into action, hence his coining of the word Transform-Action. In search for truth we live in a continuous struggle to transform the zig-zag pathway. Gutmann calls "zig" the progression, which we should strive to increase thereby decreasing the "zag," which refers to regression." -- Estela V Welldon from the Foreword'This book is an encounter with the Other... The book is written for every student of life and organisations, for every professional and leader struggling with the sweet turbulence, the zigging and zagging, of transformation.' -- Beverley Malone
