A practical, hands-on guide to helping employees through the often painful process of organizational change--whether from technological innovation, limited resources, or new management. Based on years of experience, this field-tested book will teach the crucial skills and strategies to help managers deal with their co-workers' reactions to change; minimize the disruptions in productivity, creativity, and worker relationships; and make the transition a positive experience. Each section includes a step-by-step treatment of tactics, case-studies of real situations, dialogues, and illustrations. Also includes a list of references.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This study is primarily for middle managers, who are responsible for implementing policy changes decided on by those at the top. It surveys a range of employee reactions to the end of the old system, the period of transition and the beginning of the new order; these reactions find workers disengaged, disoriented or disenchanted. A support system is presented, recognizing that individuals in the transitional corporate structure have certain basic needs: empathy, understanding and help in moving on. These can be supplied if managers direct colleagues and subordinates with concrete suggestions for steps to take. Based on a seminar of the Wilson Learning Corporation, a training firm, the book should prove helpful to those involved in corporate change.
