Description
Business transformation is emerging as a major challenge for organizations around the world in all sectors of the economy. With failure rates of over 70%, a major problem that business leaders and managers face is that transformation programmes often become invisible in the organization.
This is a developing area of academic interest and The Routledge Companion to Organizational Transformation communicates key ideas and helps shape future developments in research, teaching and practice. With contributions from a wide range of leading academics, this volume offers a multi-disciplinary perspective on business transformation, as well as providing case studies for transformation initiatives and discussing potential trajectories of the field.
Under the rigorous editorship of Braganza and Ashurst, this reference tool will be appreciated by all those students, researchers and lecturers with an interest in organizational change, business strategy and organizational behaviour and will also be a great source for those involved with the field of information systems.
