THINKBETTER

Diagnosis, etiology, and prescription—medical terms for the questions every situation raises: What is it? Where did it come from? And what should be done about it?

Drawing from both social science and ethical reflection, John Stackhouse will help you better understand and respond to the challenge you face.

ANALYSIS

What's wrong?

What's okay but needs improvement? What's toxic and deserves eradication? What's terrific and must be encouraged? Whether in a particular organization, in a social sector (such as church, academy, or popular culture), or even at a national level, John Stackhouse specializes in identifying exactly what's going on—drawing on the social sciences to ground analysis in evidence and on philosophy and theology to call things by their proper names.

EXPLANATION
How did we get here?

We can't move forward—as individuals, institutions, or societies—until we have reckoned with our past. John Stackhouse's wide training in history, particularly that of North America and Europe, but in a global comparative framework, equips him to tell your story, the story of your organization, and the story of your context.  ​ Only when we have thoroughly understood where we have been, and what has brought us to the present, can we plan for a better future.

RESPONSE

What shall we do?

Having extensively researched individuals and organizations over decades, John Stackhouse has a few good ideas about what works and what doesn't. ​ The requirements of good leadership aren't a mystery. What makes institutions healthy isn't hard to understand—not if you have put in the time and effort to study them.  ​ As an ethicist, expert witness, and experienced institutional consultant, John Stackhouse makes recommendations for the real world: specific, concrete, and practical.
