How to Manage Organisational Change

Modern managers need to cope with the initiation and implementation of change in organizations. However, there are many types of change, and each one needs to be identified and the appropriate strategy for dealing with it put in place. This handbook focuses on changes requiring a degree of participation and calling on all the manager's skills for dealing with people. Among other things it considers analysis of change situations, why change may be resisted, and envisioning, energizing and enabling. Managers should be helped to prevent confrontation and deal with problems before they become insuperable. The book is illustrated with case studies.
