"This then is the myth of the Hero-innovator: the idea that you produce, by training, a knight in shining armour who, loins girded with the new techniques and beliefs, will assault the organisational fortress and institute changes in himself and others at a stroke..

The fact of the matter is that organisations...will, like dragons, eat the hero-innovator for breakfast!"

(Giorgiades and Phillmore)
