Managing Change Summary

Managing Change by Christopher Mabey

Managing Change explores the processes, pathways and outcomes of change and strategies for managing it. The authors answer a number of provocative questions regarding change within organizations where the goal posts constantly shift, the cultural and subcultural mix grows ever more divergent, and people remain as inflexible as ever.

This book is a course Reader for The Open University Courses Managing Development and Change (B751) and Foundations of Senior Management (B800).
