Recensioner i media

This book addresses some of the key issues related to change from a practical, hands-on and realistic perspective. It will help the reader understand how to lead change; engage with change and survive change. In the fourth edition, the focus remains very firmly on the ‘nuts and bolts’ of organizational change – competing resources; politics; conflicts of interest and understanding. But the reader also benefits from change being examined from two very different angles – the organized systems perspective and a focus on people development.
