Description
Continual change, increased competition, and an uncertain future make today's oragnizations challenging and sometimes terrifying. Kenneth N. Wexley and Stanley Silverman tackle the sources of fear head on: functioning amid downsizing, working with less supervision and in team cultures, accepting diversity in the workplace, stepping up to the challenge of international competition, surviving mergers and acquisitions. In each case, the authors present positive, practical solutions to the problems American workers face, and show people how to adapt to change and succeed in today's turbulent business world.
