Organizational Change and Strategy
Organizations change, usually driven by strategies, yet strategic management and organizational change are generally understood as separate domains in the business world.

This new edition emphasizes what can be done in organizations to enable strategy to be effective and to help organizations to change and learn. Central to the book is a reflexive engagement approach through inviting the readers to apply concepts to their own organizational situations and via reflective exercises.
