Action research is developing into the technique of choice for individuals developing strategy in organizations in areas where emergent ideas and new paradigms are important; change management, sustainability, social responsibility. Gill Coleman's Action Research in Practice is designed as an accessible and practical introduction to action research thinking and practice for managers and post-graduate students. The book aims, on the one hand, to offer a practical how-to for those starting out on an action research project and, on the other, to act as a thoughtful conduit to the ideas and research that lie at the heart of this important learning and development methodology to give readers a sense of what lies behind their activities. The structure and writing style will appeal to managers and professional students who have otherwise struggled with the academic tone of much of the existing literature.
