This book presents an in-depth study of organizational change and innovation in one of the UK's leading retail leisure companies. Based on a remarkably deep level of access, the authors provide a fascinating longitudinal study of the management process in action - both the formal, 'on stage' aspects of strategic change and the informal, political behaviour of those involved.Subjects covered include:* the changing contexts of the public house business* from management to managing* change processes and politics* control and empowerment* gender and public house management.Work, Change and Competition will be essential reading for students of organizational change, as well as all readers interested in the changing nature of management/managing and organizations.

Recensioner i media

'This rich and detailed longitudinal study of a well-known company makes fascinating reading. There are relatively few 'inside' accounts like this one available. Work, Change and Competition thus makes a significant contribution to the literature of organizational development and change.' - Dave Buchanan, De Monfort University'THe authors use an accessible and informal writing style which surprisingly would please both academics and practitioners. The book makes a great contribution to an unknown area and therefore should be read widely.' - International Journal Of Toursim Research
