Overview

Managing Change: Cases and Concepts, Third Edition is a major revision and expansion of this popular text. Authors Todd Jick and Maury Peiperl have significantly broadened the scope of the cases, readings, and other material to include the now essential change challenges of sustainability, social responsibility, and the future of the global economic system. Also, here are both traditional and contemporary approaches to fundamental issues of change management, following the integrated approach for which this text is known, from envisioning change to implementing it and from leading change to being on the receiving end. Six modules guide the reader all the way from the fundamental forces driving change to the deeper complexities of changes that are continuous by nature. Cases and readings are drawn from some twelve countries around the globe and cover the entire spectrum of industrial and service firms, touching the public sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) as well. Companies range from a few dozen employees to hundreds of thousands, and run from bottle caps to dot-coms to international airlines. Some change programs are intended to be introduced over a weekend, while others are to be phased in over years. There are stunning successes, dismal failures, and everything in between. The accompanying readings provide theoretical underpinnings, support or challenge the action in a case, offer a broader context with views of the changing world, or provide commentaries-sometimes diametrically opposed, but always compelling-on how we look at, understand, and manage-for better or worse-change. Highlights of the Third Edition Include: 17 new or updated cases, including "Innovation at the Lego Group," ôMerrill Lynch: Evolution, Revolution and Sale,ö and "Vinesh Juglal: South African Serial Entrepreneur" 8 new readings, including "The Collapse and Transformation of Our World," ôLeadership for Change: Enduring Skills for Change Masters,ö and "Rethinking the Social Responsibility of Business" Book jacket.
