description: Organization leaders at all levels in today’s fast-paced business world are searching for management skills to sustain consistent performance while they increase their speed and flexibility. Based on participative control backed by a uniquely integrated and pragmatic system of five practices, Change-ABLE™ Organization has been practiced in large and small computer, consumer goods, government and telecommunications settings like Intel, Etec Systems, Genesco, and Motorola. This book is the result of those experiences and includes key practices and values, the use of graphics and watercraft analogies to contrast highly adaptive and ineffective organizational cultures, warnings about consequences of becoming Change-ABLE, and an in-depth look at one medium-sized organization’s experience and success with the method. For those investigating a complete system of management organization and to stop practices such as “Go with the Flow,” Working Alone...Together,” and “Autocratic Control,” Change-ABLE Organization guides the way.
