Synopsis

THE SECOND EDITON FEATURES A GREATLY EXPANDED SECTION ON METHODS FOR BETTER MEETINGS. THOSE METHODS THAT HAVE PROVEN TO BE THE MOST BASIC AND USEFUL HAVE BEEN EXPANDED AND ENRICHED WITH EXAMPLES AND DETAIL. NEW METHODS THAT PASS THE TEST OF FUNDAMENTAL UTILITY HAVE BEEN ADDED. THE BOOK PROVIDES MORE INSIGHT INTO HOW ORGANIZAITON DEVELOPMENT METHODS CAN BE APPLIED TO A VARIETY OF ORGANIZATIONAL PROBLEMS AND CHANGES. THERE IS A DISCUSSION OF WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN A TEAM-BUILDING MEETING AND HOW THE THIRD PARTY FUNCTIONS. AN APPENDIX COVERS RECENT RESEARCH IN "GROUPTHINK". MANAGING WITH PEOPLE IS A PRACTICAL TOOL BOTH FOR THE MANAGER WHO DESIRES TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ORGANIZATION DEVELOPMENT AND FOR THE MANAGER ALREADY INVOLVED IN A PROGRAM WHO NEEDS A HANDBOOK OF METHODOLOGY AND EXAMPLES. THIS BOOK IS A MUST, I BELIEVE, FOR COURSES IN ORGANIZAITONAL BEHAVIOR AND DEVELOPMENT, MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE, AND HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT. IT WILL CERTAINLY BECOME A REQUIRED TEXT IN MY OWN COURSES. MIT SCHOOL OF MANAGMENT.
