Organisationsforandringer sker med så stor hastighed, at det kan være vanskeligt at vurdere relevansen af dem, før de sættes i gang, eller at styre og sikre kvaliteten af forandringerne, når de kører for fuld skrue.Succesrige forandringer opnås gennem kontekstafhængig fleksibel organisering, der involverer organisationens viden, teknologi og menneskelige ressourcer. Det kræver processer, der på én gang skaber kvalitet og ejerskab.Robust organisationsforandring - design og implementering i orkanens øje giver en række teori- og empiribaserede bud på, hvordan man skaber robust organisationsforandring uden på forhånd at kende mål og resultater. Bogen går i dybden med:situationsafstemt forandringkompleksitet i forandringerfrivillig versus tvungen forandringroller i forandringmennesker, der forandresforandring gennem organisatoriske relationeroversættelses- og læreprocesser, som fører til forandringetik og værdier i forandringEndelig sætter bogens sidste kapitel fokus på, at det også er vigtigt at lave en plan for, hvad der skal ske efter forandringen.Bogen er velegnet som grundbog i forandringsledelse og er berigende læsning for studerende såvel som for ledere og konsulenter, som ønsker at skabe robust organisationsforandring.

Globalization, the new economy, and the IT revolution are some of the words used when researchers, as well as practitioners, try to explain the seemingly ever-increasing speed of change in contemporary society. Sometimes they act as "change-takers," forced to adapt to changes and innovations coming from the outside. At other times they are "change-makers," who foster innovation and change, giving them a competitive advantage or a heightened legitimacy. Sometimes they force others to adapt to these changes. The analyses presented in this volume provide ample evidence of how the perspective of new institutionalism can help us understand the anatomy of change, and how some actors avoid complete stasis through utilizing small openings instead of breaking down the whole wall.
