- Summary:
-
You will find in this book a comprehensive change methodology that addresses all factors that affect organizational performance. By examining and transforming the whole organization in a systematic and coordinated manner, no avoidable performance factors are left untouched that can lead to long-term performance deficits. This book places an emphasis on communication at all stages of the transformation process. Individuals resist change when they don't understand the changes that are taking place and when they see little or no perceived benefit of doing things differently.
Beyond Corporate Transformation is precise and to the point without skimming over or avoiding complicated or difficult topics. At the same time it is complete with dozens of company examples. By setting aside a few hours, readers, from CEOs to plant managers to newly hired salespersons, can understand what a large scale organizational change effort really means, and can learn how to help lead and add value to the change effort taking place.
