Written specifically to meet the needs of students, this engaging
book interweaves a fascinating case story with more general
analysis to offer an ideal introduction to the processes and issues
of managing organizational innovation and change. The story covers

with questions for discussion. Key topics covered are: strategy and
structure - the competitive environment, strategic decision-making,
roles, relationships and tensions in a complex multinational; human
resource management and industrial relations - greenfield versus
`brownfield' siting, flexibility, multi-skilling, single-union
agreement, developing and implementing new HRM strategy;
technological innovation - designing and implementing
computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM), the challenges and
problems of total automation; total quality management -
introducing a culture of continuous improvement; and managing
strategic innovation - continuity and change, leadership and
culture, ideals and realities, learning in organizations.
