About the Book

In today's volatile world, leaders face challenges that can't be solved with quick fixes or technical expertise alone. What's needed is a deeper capacity to think, act, and lead developmentally. The Developmental Practitioner introduces the pioneering work of Otto Laske, whose Constructive Developmental Framework (CDF) equips leaders, coaches, and consultants with powerful tools to unlock human potential and redesign organizations for resilience and renewal. Through vivid explanations and practical insights, this book demonstrates how developmental practice enables leaders to hold complexity, navigate systemic change, and foster cultures of dialogue and growth. In an era of AI disruption and systemic fragility, it offers a timely invitation: to lead with wisdom, act with courage, and reimagine organizations as living systems that evolve with their people.

About the Author :
Jan De Visch (°1961) is a seasoned consultant and executive coach with decades of experience facilitating complex organizational development processes. As a professor at Flanders Business School, he explores one essential question: What drives organizations toward sustainable growth? His approach blends strategic insight with in-depth developmental understanding, enabling leadership teams to align their structure, culture, and purpose.

Review :
This book is essential reading for anyone concerned that human systems of thinking may not be up to the task of coping with current advances in technology. Nick Shannon - Principal Director, Management Psychology Ltd (UK) The extraordinary work of Otto Laske is enabling an increasing number of people to develop the new kinds of complex thinking we need. If you want to be part of the solution, you should read this book and apply the methods that are outlined masterfully in the book. John Stewart, Evolutionary Scientist (Australia) You will not find a more useful summary of the most powerful approaches for transforming our current economy and society. Graham Boyd, CEO & Founder, Evolutesix (Belgium) Jan's contribution is significant as he does more than chronicle Otto Laske's intellectual journey. Instead, he distills complex ideas into accessible insights for practitioners, whether those are consultants, coaching practitioners, leaders, educators, therapists-shortly, all those who sense that traditional approaches to human potential are insufficient. Dr. D. Ursula Clidière, Program Lead Coaching Supervision Global Institute of Organizational Coaching (Switzerland) Jan guides readers through Otto's magnum opus, the Constructive Developmental Framework (CDF), with clarity and eloquence, making it within reach to those not yet familiar with his groundbreaking work. Jan also provides a structured approach, grounded in CDF, to personal growth through mastering internal conversations, illustrating methods for developing teams, leading organizational transformation, and recognizing opportunities for societal and global transformation. Prof. Dr. I. Vuldelja. Adjunct Faculty Quinlan School of Business, Loyola University Chicago, and Adjunct Faculty Marquette University, Milwaukee (US)
