So, You Wanna Build an Institution!Both our work and private lives require us to build new institutions or renovate old ones, from launching a business in your home to creating a new corporate division at work, from establishing a local charter school to organizing an athletic club with friends. Drawing on his remarkable six-decade career of building institutions around the world, Jeswald W. Salacuse has written a book to guide you skillfully through the challenges of institution building, from articulating the institutional vision to securing the resources to make it happen. The Institution Builder's Toolbox: Moves for Negotiating Change expertly advises readers on how to negotiate each of the seven developmental phases necessary to build a robust institution.
Jeswald W. Salacuse is Dean Emeritus and Distinguished Professor Emeritus of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. The author of twenty books, his many leadership positions include serving as dean of two university graduate schools, as president of three national professional organizations, as chair or lead director of fifteen different companies, and as an institution builder in over forty countries. His rich experience animates his book.

Professor Salacuse offers a pragmatic and incisive guide on how to do so, centered on seven key tasks - richly illustrated by his own relentless pursuit of better institutions throughout the world." - Alnoor Ebrahim, Professor of Management, The Fletcher School, Tufts University "From the brilliant mind of eminent Professor Jeswald Salacuse, The Institution Builder's Toolbox maps out the critical nuances of institution building. It's an indispensable guide, rich in practical knowledge, for anyone at the helm of creating or leading an organization. A must-read for those who aspire to make a real impact on the world!" - Daniel L. Shapiro, PhD, Founding Director, Harvard International Negotiation Program, and author, Negotiating the Nonnegotiable
