Although change management and therefore effective adaptation to
environmental complexity is considered a uniquely human cultural
activity, the extensive change management literature is largely
based on the experiences of organizations in the advanced economies
of the West. As the economies of African countries become
increasingly open, African organizations will need to be agile in
order to adapt and grow in a dynamic, global environment.
Currently, there is a dearth of contextualized knowledge on change
management within Africa, but this handbook aims to address this by
bringing together a wide range of experts to explore organizational
change and change management from an African context. The handbook
adopts a multidisciplinary (historical, philosophical, processual,
and strategic) perspective as well as empirical accounts of change
management. It addresses such issues as: What are the external and
internal pressures for change? What is the content and process of
change management? What are the essentials of effective change
management? How can change management be theorized from an African
perspective? What sort of leadership can best align with change
management demands in an African context? How do organizations
build internal change management capability? It is hoped that
answers to these questions contained in the handbook will provide a
contextualized understanding of change management which African
organizations and scholars can leverage to respond to the threats
and opportunities inherent in their increasingly dynamic
environment. The handbook should constitute an essential reference
for academics, researchers, and advanced students of change
management, development studies, and African studies, as well as
practitioners.
