John Hayes' bestselling textbook combines a scholarly discussion of change management with a host of practical tools and techniques. It provides future managers with all the skills they need to diagnose the need for change and to ensure its successful implementation. The book's unique underpinning framework views change as a purposeful and constructed sequence of events, rather than something chaotic and unmanageable. Its hands-on approach includes a number of 'Change Tools' that students can apply to various scenarios, an array of case studies and examples based on real-life organisations worldwide and video interviews with experienced change practitioners, who share their insights on key topics.
The book will be essential reading for final-year business undergraduates, as well as MBA and postgraduate students who are taking modules in change management or organisational change. It is also ideal for change practitioners and consultants.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
It would be hard to improve on the last edition of Hayes' book, but this version does. Wonderfully clear, it is a useful book for course leaders in the human side of strategy, and a great lifelong learning companion for anyone moving into a change agent's role or looking to change their organisation. The new, reframed chapters on making change stick are a great addition. * Peter Antonioni, Lecturer, University College London, UK. * Getting people to change, even when it is in their best interest to do so, is the most difficult task faced by any leader. Hayes makes this content readily accessible, in one of the best management texts I have ever read. * Nicholas S. Miceli, Associate Professor of Management/Accounting, Park University, USA. * This text has three great strengths as an effective learning resource: it is one of the few texts where chapters clearly align with managing the change process; it emphasises the people management issues associated with implementing change; and each chapter provides at least one brief practical case study, drawing from a range of industries and organisations located around the globe. * Jan Fermelis, Senior Lecturer, Deakin University, Australia. *
