"Making Sense of the Organization" elaborates on the influential
idea that organizations are interpretation systems that scan,
interpret, and learn. These selected essays represent a new
approach to the way managers learn and act in response to their
environment and the way organizational change evolves. Readers of
this volume will find a wealth of examples and insights which go
well beyond thinking and cognition to explain action. The author's
ideas are at the forefront of our thinking on leadership, teams,
and the management of change.
"This book engages the puzzle of impermanence in organizing.
Through rich examples, evocative language, artful literature
citing, and imaginative connecting, Weick re-introduces core ideas
and themes around attending, interpreting, acting and learning to
unlock new insights about impermanent organizing. The wisdom in
this book is timeless and timely. It prods scholars and managers of
organizations to complicate their views of organizing in ways that
enrich thought and action." - Jane E. Dutton, Robert L. Kahn
