Empowering Change: Role of People Management (Developing Strategies S.) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Personnel professionalism requires directors and managers to keep fully abreast of current business strategy; this series provides the tools for them to make a full contribution to organisational success. Successful change inititives - when companies set out to restructure themselves, internationalise, become market leaders or develop a high-performance culture - depend crucially on quality people management. To elaborate this central claim, leading consultants Ridgeway and Wallace draw on the experiences of directors, managers and staff wrestling daily with change in organizations like Reckitt and Colman, Shell International and Allied Lyons. They explore the need for effective collaboration between the line and HR, the skills many personnel professionals urgently need to acquire ways of identifying the "stakeholders" in change, the inevitable casualties, and the choice between revolutionary and evolutionary methods. Later chapters set out Critical Success Factors for effective change and examine the key roles of managers as change leaders and of HR professionals as strategic partners. Today, continuous change - as opposed to fretful tinkering when things go wrong - is central to every strong business; this book aims to help companies meet the challenge head on.
