Synopsis

The primary aim of this textbook is to provide management students and practising managers with an understanding of, and a guide to, managing the complexities of organisational change effectively. The techniques and methods that can be used to aid successful change are reviewed and discussed. Real-life case studies are employed to highlight the problems and obstacles encountered in managing change and to illustrate how these barriers can be overcome. These are set in the context of the development of organisational theory and the following themes are explored: organisational design and behaviour approaching change strategically identifying and overcoming barriers to change planning and implementing change organisational culture and managerial behaviour The second edition of Managing Change is completely updated and contains new case material to represent a much more European perspective. It contains a new chapter on organisational culture.
