The constant shifts and changes in the contemporary business environment are having a profound effect on organizational effectiveness and call for fluidity in organizational structures and processes. The authors of this unique book stress the importance of the organizational dynamics approach as the most effective way of understanding how individuals in any organization respond to these unprogrammed developments. They base their analysis on first-hand learning from 33 cases prepared in different organizational contexts. These revealing cases, which are based on the ‘learning by experience’ method, provide numerous strategic insights. They are grouped into six modules: Organisation and its environment, Challenges for new managers, Corporate Governance, Mentoring and empowerment, Personal and interpersonal dynamics at work, Managing organizational crisis. The authors conclude that management professionals need to reduce their reliance on past theories and models and should, instead, think out of the box in order to successfully respond to the changing environment. An unprecedented effort, this book serves as an instrument for developing a critical thinking process and will help in dealing with the critical ‘odd’ moments and situations which find the individual and the organization standing at fragile crossroads. As such it will be essential reading not only for managers but also for students and teachers of management.
