[…] While there are no community members on the Transformation Team currently I wonder if this is not a way of changing/transforming even while in the process of discussing transformation? I applaud Jeff for starting the blog and appointing the Task Force and wonder how many intersections they will find once they begin to look for innovation (one of the charges to the Task Force). […]

Frans has a blog about the Medici Effect - it was dormant for a long time, but in the last month he’s begun blogging again with a vengeance, exploring new intersections, and explaining how the book came about. You can find it at http://themedicieffect.typepad.com/

T.Scott — thanks for your comment. We are entirely on the same wavelength re: the need for librarians to really dig into and translate and utilize the management/leadership literature in order to create more dynamic library organizations. Excellent libraries don’t just happen and they aren’t only due to good collections and good staff — they are due to stellar management and leadership. This is not something we really spend much time learning. I think your comment on the time it takes to work on making an organization effective is exactly why we don’t have more of them. Unfortunately people try “cosmetic” managerial actions (such as creating an incentive program, creating teams without team development, etc.) and then wonder why it doesn’t make a difference! It takes a very long time to develop an organization and to redevelop it along intentional lines. There is a wealth of helpful literature on this and good case studies such as your library and some others where the time has been taken to really thoughtfully create the systems that will allow a great library to emerge.
