Synopses & Reviews
The book focuses on change and development as organizational phenomena. The entire text is divided into 5 sections viz., Understanding Organizational Processes and Change, Management of Change, Nature of Organizational Development, OD Interventions and Strategies, and Contemporary Issues in OD, as the concluding part. With a strong conceptual foundation, the book takes the readers through the entire processes and stages of change as seen and experienced worldwide.
The main strength of the book lies in its exhaustive treatment to a wide array of topics along with various exhibits on change management in Indian and global organizations.
