Description
Directed at managers and employees in today's corporations, where change is necessary to revitalize and improve corporate performance, MANAGING TRANSITIONS addresses the fact that it is people that have to carry out the change. It not only talks about what should be done, but also shows how to do it, giving managers practical ways to bring everybody "on board". Armed with this new information managers will look at future changes in a new way, no longer feeling anxious and hopeless, but rather looking at the opportunities.
Whenever an organisation makes a change, its people have to deal with, first, an ending; then with a time in between the old and the new that Bridges calls "the neutral zone"; and then with a new beginning. William Bridges, the bestselling author of Jobshift, is the first to talk about what is going on inside the people who have to make the change work; and the first to provide any real sense of the emotional impact of change and what can be done to keep it from disrupting the entire organization.
Bridges' years of experience helping organizations and individuals successfully take control of change has proven the need for specific, concrete, guidelines for dealing with change. Managing Transitions provides these guidelines.
