Handbook of Principles of Organizational Behavior by Edwin Locke Pdf

There is a strong movement today in management to encourage management practices based on research evidence. In the first volume of this handbook, I asked experts in 39 areas of management to identify a central principle that summarized and integrated the core findings from their specialty area and then to explain this principle and give real business examples of the principle in action. I asked them to write in non-technical terms, e.g., without a lot of statistics, and almost all did so. The previous handbook proved to be quite popular, so I was asked to edit a second edition. This new edition has been expanded to 33 topics, and there are some new authors for the previously included topics. The new edition also includes: updated case examples, updated references and practical exercises at the end of each chapter. It also includes a preface on evidence-based management. The principles for the first edition were intended to be relatively timeless, so it is no surprise that most of the principles are the same (though some chapter titles include more than one principle). This book could serve as a textbook in advanced undergraduate and in MBA courses. It could also be of use to practicing managers and not just those in Human Resource departments. Every practicing manager may not want to read the whole book, but I am willing to guarantee that every one will find at least one or more chapters that will be practically useful. In this time of economic crisis, the need for effective management practices is more acute than ever.

Information Systems and Organizational Change (Classic Reprint) by Peter G. W. Keen Pdf

Excerpt from Information Systems and Organizational Change This paper discusses long-term change in organizations in relation to information systems. The aim is to explain why innovation is so difficult and to point towards effective strategies for managing the process of change. Many commentators have drawn attention to problems of implementation that result in systems being technical successes but organizational failures Urban (69), Grayson (23), Keen (32), Drake (18). Their analyses stresses the complexity of organizational systems and the social inertia that dampens out the intended effects of technical innovations. The growing body of research on implementation mainly deals with tactical issues: how to create a climate for change and build and institutionalize a specific system. This paper focuses on strategic questions: (1) What are the causes of social inertia? (2) What are the main organizational constraints on change? (3) What are the mechanisms for effecting change? The dilemma to be resolved is that effective implementation relies on incremental change, small-scale projects and face-to-face facilitation [Ginzberg (22), Vertinsky, et al. (71), Keen and Scott Morton (36)]. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Applications of Soft Systems Methodology for Organizational Change by Maryam Ebrahimi Pdf

Systems thinking is a method of problem solving that deals with various cultural issues including conflict and compromise. In recent years, researchers have begun studying this approach and applying it within several professional fields, specifically organizations and business management. In the modern age of information, professionals are continually looking for new methods to improve traditional practices within their field. Improving organizational practices through the implementation of the soft systems approach is a growing research area that requires in-depth discussion and case studies. Applications of Soft Systems Methodology for Organizational Change is a collection of innovative research on the theories and practices of soft systems and their application within organizational and industrial analysis. While highlighting topics including agent-based modeling, sustainable energy initiatives, and natural resources allocation, this book is ideally designed for researchers, designers, managers, analysts, practitioners, executives, academicians, and students seeking current research on the theories and applications of soft systems design.
