Leading Change
By: Michael Beer
Abstract
Presents a conceptual framework for understanding the process of leading organizational change. Change leaders must create dissatisfaction with the status quo, develop a vision of the future state, and manage a process that sequences and orchestrates events and changes in such a way that internal commitment is developed and resistance reduced. Practical suggestions for developing these conditions for change are provided.
