Managing Organizational Change (eBook, ePUB)

A Practical Toolkit for Leaders

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A critical area of competitive advantage is the ability of organizations to lead rather than follow changes in the market. This means having the ability to roll out the right changes quickly and reliably in a way that delivers a return on investment. Managing Organizational Change brings together all the different roles and functions within an organization that a leader has to manage effectively to ensure successful and sustainable organizational change. Centred around the Cycle of Change Model, it provides a practical yet reflective overview of the four things you have to have (culture, capacity, commitment and capability) and the six things you have to do (direct, drive, deliver, prepare, propagate and profit). It explains which type of resources you need in order to achieve long term change, which tasks, roles and activities need to be in place and crucially, how to lead during a time of great unease.

Managing Organizational Change will help you deliver better outcomes, reflect on what your organization needs to do better and ensure change is embedded throughout your organization.

Online supporting resources for this book include downloadable appendices to supplement several chapters.

Autorenporträt

Helen came to writing and illustrating children's stories when she retired and absolutely loves it. Covid lockdown gave her the time and opportunity to explore this newfound love and the first Angry Albert Alligator book was written closely followed by this one. She recounts that her head is brimming over with stories and just hopes that they all get the chance to be published and above all, she hopes children and their mums and dads, grandmas and grandpas, and all the families all over the world, enjoy her work.
