Description: This book focuses on one dimension of change, the effectiveness of people at work. It does not focus heavily on changes in structure, changes in environment around work, changes in information systems. However, it does explain in depth the core managerial dilemma: of simultaneously organizing the human energy to achieve organizational objectives and organizing the work, the communications, the structures, to optimize the individual's needs for achievement, satisfaction, and development. It addresses this dilemma squarely and comes up with a number of operational strategies and methods for managing it. This book is for courses in organizational behavior and development, management of change, and human resource management.
