Download or read book Handbook of Principles of Organizational Behavior written by Edwin Locke and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-07-15 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a strong movement today in management to encourage management practices based on research evidence. In the first volume of this handbook, I asked experts in 39 areas of management to identify a central principle that summarized and integrated the core findings from their specialty area and then to explain this principle and give real business examples of the principle in action. I asked them to write in non-technical terms, e.g., without a lot of statistics, and almost all did so. The previous handbook proved to be quite popular, so I was asked to edit a second edition. This new edition has been expanded to 33 topics, and there are some new authors for the previously included topics. The new edition also includes: updated case examples, updated references and practical exercises at the end of each chapter. It also includes a preface on evidence-based management. The principles for the first edition were intended to be relatively timeless, so it is no surprise that most of the principles are the same (though some chapter titles include more than one principle). This book could serve as a textbook in advanced undergraduate and in MBA courses. It could also be of use to practicing managers and not just those in Human Resource departments. Every practicing manager may not want to read the whole book, but I am willing to guarantee that every one will find at least one or more chapters that will be practically useful. In this time of economic crisis, the need for effective management practices is more acute than ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Information Systems and Organizational Change This paper discusses long-term change in organizations in relation to information systems. The aim is to explain why innovation is so difficult and to point towards effective strategies for managing the process of change. Many commentators have drawn attention to problems of implementation that result in systems being technical successes but organizational failures Urban (69), Grayson (23), Keen (32), Drake (18). Their analyses stresses the complexity of organizational systems and the social inertia that dampens out the intended effects of technical innovations. The growing body of research on implementation mainly deals with tactical issues: how to create a climate for change and build and institutionalize a specific system. This paper focuses on strategic questions: (1) What are the causes of social inertia? (2) What are the main organizational constraints on change? (3) What are the mechanisms for effecting change? The dilemma to be resolved is that effective implementation relies on incremental change, small-scale projects and face-to-face facilitation [Ginzberg (22), Vertinsky, et al. (71), Keen and Scott Morton (36)]. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Large Scale Organizational Change written by Christopher Laszlo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large Scale Organizational Change provides the principles by which large scale organizations reinvent themselves not once, but on an ongoing basis. Continual reinvention allows leading companies to learn, adapt, and innovate faster than competitors in complex and fast changing environments. These action principles are based on first-hand experience at the world's leading Fortune 500 companies using emergent models of living systems. The context for large scale organizations is one of information overload, complexity and constant change. This book reduces the sense of vulnerability felt by managers. It provides a guide to piloting change in ways that lead to constant renewal and a capacity to survive frequent and often brutal changes in the operating environment. It describes a leadership concerned with the capacity to learn, inflection points, emergent strategies, knowledge management, the ability to anticipate, and tapping into the distributed intelligence resident in the organization. Large Scale Organizational Change provides managers with a framework for making their organizations highly adaptive in the complex market systems in which they operate, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for periodic episodes of traumatic restructuring and sometimes fatal reengineering processes.
