	Our books The partners of the space between have published a number of books dealing with organisational work and personal development. Latest Release Moments of Leadership – Leadership with a Gestalt focus by Trevor Bentley and Howard Boorman. The difference between the role of leaders and the act of leadership is described in such a way that it becomes possible to believe that it is within everyone’s grasp to lead. By looking at leadership as a process, rather than a role, the authors show how it is as much the context and circumstances that define leadership as it is the people involved. The opportunity for leadership arises from moment to moment and it is those who recognise and grasp the leadership moment who triumph. Excerpts from a review of Moments of Leadership, by Robert Farrands J.D., Ph.D. (as published in Gestalt Review 09, Volume 13 – Number One, Gestalt International Study Center): “Deserves attention for the way in which it explains how the authors have drawn on their membership of a Gestalt community to develop their own approach.” “My copy of this book is covered with my own notes. Clearly I have been provoked and stimulated. I wonder what it would be like if I was to try to set out in 20,000 words precisely what I believed about leadership – perhaps all practitioners should try? Reading this book, pen in hand, would be a good place to start.” *Other books available from the space between Australia.* *A Touch of Magic* by Trevor Bentley. In the fast changing, complex business world of today, different organisational practices are needed to keep up. This book is about a new way forward. It is about the magic of contact, complexity, creativity and chaos, and how leaders and consultants can tap into these things to create magic of their own. *Creativity* by Trevor Bentley. Innovation and creativity are two of the most important skills in business today. Organisations are looking for significant growth, not simply marginal improvements, and business developments of that scale demand innovative ideas and a creative approach at every stage.
