Summary "Bob Doppelt is director of Resource Innovations and The Climate Leadership Initiative in the Institute for a Sustainable Environment, and courtesy associate professor in the Department of Planning, Public Policy, and Management at the University of Oregon, US." "This book tackles climate change, sustainability and life success by starting with your mind. It provides 'staged-based' methods for transforming thinking and behaviour, beginning first with the reader's own cognitive patterns, then moving to how individuals can motivate other people to change, and finally to how teams and organizations can be motivated to change."--BOOK JACKET
