 Uses teleological change lens to examine six institutions' "transformational change" processes.

Notes the presence across most cases of common elements of the process: strong leader support, systemic and inter-related efforts (as opposed to linear, sequential efforts) and the opportunity for institution members at all levels to "make sense" of the change through sustained discussion.
