The Palgrave Handbook of Organizational Change Thinkers: 2017

2017 | Philosophy, Psychology & Social Sciences

The key developments and advancements in organizational change over the last century are the result of the research, theories, and practices of seminal scholars in the field. While most books simply outline a theorist's model, this handbook provides invaluable insight into the contexts and motivations behind their contributions. Organized chronologically across three time periods (Early, Contemporary, and Future), this handbook presents inspiring and thought-provoking profiles of prominent organizational change thinkers, capturing the professional background of each and highlighting their key insights, contributions, and legacy within the field of organizational change. By bringing these scholars' experiences to life, we can begin to understand the process of organizational change and analyze what remains to be done for organizations today. This book will be the first of its kind-the go-to source for learning about the research and practice of organizational change from those who invented, built, and advanced the field.

By analyzing this across time, the editors offer a schematic, impartial review of the enduring thoughts of each era and how the unique characteristics of each time period has influenced their work. This comprehensive handbook will help researchers, students, and practitioners to develop their change management skill sets, and provide the young professional with concepts, theories, and models that can easily be applied to the workplace to lead change more effectively.
