I created this page to store some links related to this topic.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs - start at the bottom for the most fundamental human needs and work your way up to (dramatic pause) self-actualization. Why bother? Well, one idea: people strive to fill these needs and once they're met, they move on to another need.

Wikipedia summary on Virginia Satir - quick overview of her life, with very little on her “Change Process Model”

Change Management Article - one guy's take on applying the Satir Change Process Model in businesses and organizations. He also talks about the “hierarchy of needs” (see above).

Satir Change Model article - a consultant's (Steven Smith) take on applying Satir to hi-tech organizations

Google's Android Developer Challenge - write an app using Google's new SDK for mobile devices. No, this has nothing to do with Satir, but it's cool.

I'm going to just sneak these in here. Some BPEL favorites:

BPEL 2.0 Tutorial - a “just OK” tutorial/intro
