Autorenporträt
Over a number of years Cynthia C. Jones Shoemaker has been reviewing text books and current management books in the fields of human and organizational learning with great interest. Currently the Information Age with its accompanying "too much information" (TMI) has been affecting more than just business enterprises and government, but also transition stages in human development. After raising four children and working in higher education both as a professor and as an administrator for many years, it seemed useful to combine these background fields into some practical applications for others in transition and in the workplace. Graduate teaching, along with her doctorate in human development with a minor in management, informed her needs for vision, guidance, sensemaking and purpose. The model Sensemaking Flow Chart here with its clarity, has been helpful to many people in a number of walks of life, ages and stages.
