NEW MANAGEMENT TOPIC: Changing Things: What and How

Frustrated with how things currently work within your organization? Overwhelmed with where to start and what exactly to do in order to bring about change?
 
Most people approach change in a piecemeal manner, failing to achieve lasting impact. This topic provides you with frameworks of “change what?” and “change how?” in order to better do so. Whether you need to command dramatic change, engineer systematic change, or socialize organic change, you will develop a clearer idea as to what needs to be done within your organization, using what methods, and by what means.
 
In this topic, written by Henry Mintzberg and Phil LeNir, you will understand different ways to think about changing your organization, appreciate how the various processes of change interrelate, and identify what you need to change and suitable methods to do so.
