Choosing to Change

An Alternative Understanding of Change Management

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Choosing to Change takes an alternative view of the change process, applying thinking from the studies of complexity to explore how change in organisations is driven by individual choice. How the totality of our individual experiences and our aspirations for the future shapes our thinking, setting out an approach that brings change by choice rather than process. It is an exploration of how choice is the basis of all successful change programmes. Through the reflections of those who have experienced change. This book tackles how our expectations of the future will determine the choices made and is a vital tool for managers, practitioners and advanced management students.
