Managing Change and Making it Stick (Successful manager) - Softcover

A concise and practical guide to change - how to recognize the need for change, how to make it happen and how to manage it successfully. Organizations are constantly changing, either to adapt to new market conditions or simply because every organization has an internal development which takes it through several distinct phases and kinds of structure. The successful manager is the person who can influence the course of this change for good. This text is a blueprint for action. Containing concrete examples and practical advice, it emphasizes the need for reflection and self-analysis before taking decisions. Roger Plant demonstrates how change can be effectively brought about; how to recognize the need for it, how to evaluate the kind of change needed, how to build a shared vision and how to implement it, and finally how to maintain change once it has been achieved.
