Adopting a conceptual approach, this introduction to the management of change in organizations includes topical case studies which allow students to review ideas and models, and worked examples of the use of the techniques which allow for practical work on change and facilitate student project work. The third edition includes new material on organizations in the 21st century, the value-added organization, the learning organization, and strategies for corporate transformation.

This volume provides an overview of how to achieve effective organizations. It offers guidance and techniques for planning, implementing and reviewing major organizational changes and suggests how people and organizations can cope with the pressures. It is up-dated to include new material drawn from Mintzberg, Porter, Danny Miller, Gould and Campbell. It features conceptual material developing a framework of major change, more on corporate capability profiling and bench-marking, and new material on innovation transition.
