A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the last decade, organisations have spent enormous amounts of money on attempts to improve productivity, yet most of these changes are not successful. The reason, explains William Joyce, is that traditional methods for designing and changing organisations have been based on an assumption of human limitations, a premise that buries creativity in bureaucracy and useless systems and procedures, and denies employees' needs for satisfying work.
MEGACHANGE prescribes a very different journey, from a new starting point defined by a person's strengths. Joyce's 'New Logic for Change' is composed of four critical steps: Empowering the Workforce, Engaging Systems, Reforming Structures, and Redirecting Strategy. Developed while the author was guiding large-scale change at Nabisco and Citibank, the Megachange system creates an organisational culture that emphasises not just human values, but is based on the importance of meaningful work both for the individual employee and for the organisation as a whole, and not just the bottom line.
