'Michael Reynolds and Russ Vince are to be commended for moving the agenda on. This book gives a new impetus to thinking about reflection. It represents the new generation of work on reflection: beyond the individual to the wider purposes of groups and organizations. The editors have assembled a stimulating collection of examples to show how this approach to reflection can be promoted in a variety of ways in different settings.' David Boud, Professor of Adult Education, University of Technology, Sydney '...a well-written and welcome contribution to the literature...offers valuable insights into the concept of reflection - in the workplace, in management education as well as in adult education... I would not hesitate to recommend this book to students, colleagues and practitioners.' Professor Bente Elkjaer, Doctoral School of Organisational Learning (DOCSOL), Denmark.

Through a series of leading-edge contributions from pre-eminent international scholars in the field, Organizing Reflection makes a stimulating and distinctive contribution to the study of reflection. By doing so, it offers the first shift from the individual reflective practitioner to processes of collective and public reflection. The unique and varied contributions focus on the development of notions such as public reflection, collective reflection, and critical reflection. In doing so, they provide critical insights into new thinking and approaches to the role of reflection in organizations, as well as the conceptualization and delivery of learning and change. Organizing Reflection will be of interest to scholars working in business, professional, management and organization studies, to human development academics, and to scholarly practitioners in organizations.
