Managing Change in Organizations

Description

In Managing Change in Organizations, Stefan Sveningsson and Nadja Sörgärde explore a broad range of perspectives on change management, encouraging critical reflection and making sense of a complex field of theories. Their unique approach based around three key perspectives of change will help students understand: How change is accomplished - the tool perspective What change means for those involved - the process perspective And Why is change initiated (and is it necessary) - the critical perspective This focus on the common how, what and why questions offers students the chance to learn pragmatic tools for managing change, as well as gain an in-depth understanding of different theories and their value. The book is complemented by a range of online resources including PowerPoint Slides, Multiple Choice Questions, and a selection of SAGE Business Cases and journal articles. Stefan Sveningsson is Professor of Business Administration at the School of Economics and Management, Lund University, Sweden. Nadja Sörgärde is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Economics and Management, Lund University, Sweden.
