Organizational Change and Innovation

First published in 1992, Organizational Change and Innovation has been at the centre of much management literature, informed by debates in organisational behaviour and strategic management. The psychology of how people in organisations adapt to and manage change is key to our understanding of the processes by which such changes can occur successfully.

Organizational Change and Innovation brings together the recent research findings of leading European work and organisation psychologists, who take stock of existing theories about organisational change in the light of new case material. Their findings, from a range of cultural and national contexts, challenge some previously accepted models and set a new agenda for future research. In particular, the volume provides new perspectives on the person-organisation relationship; the political qualities of organisational change; the input-output model of organisations as entities; and finally on research methodology.
