Cummings, Thomas G. creator author. Worley, Christopher G. author. text ph Pasig City, Philippines Cengage Learning c2011 2012 Philippine edition. monographic eng 775 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 23 cm. "In preparing this edition, we were struck by how the clichè of "living in changing times" is becoming almost ironic. The events of each day remind us that things are moving far more quickly and unpredictably than we could ever have imagined. Consider the U.S. economic turmoil brought on by the mortgage-lending crisis and the record price of crude oil, which seemingly rises independent consumption. Or think about the run-up to the 2008 U.S. presidential election. It strikes us as just a bit surreal to see the word CHANGE plastered on the speaker's podium and waved by supporters every time Barack Obama comes out to speak. Not to be outdone, Hillary Clinton's key selling point is her emphasis that she has the ability to lead change." --Preface Contents: Chapter 1: General introduction to organization development -- Part 1: Overview of organization development -- Chapter 2: The4 nature of planned change -- Chapter 3: The organization development practitioner -- Part 2: The process of organization development -- Chapter 4: Entering and contracting -- Chapter 5: Diagnosing organizations -- Chapter 6: Diagnosing groups and jobs -- Chapter 7: Collecting and analyzing diagnostic information -- Chapter 8: Feeding back diagnostic information -- Chapter 9: Designing interventions -- Chapter 10: Leading and managing change -- Chapter 11: Evaluating and institutionalizing organization development interventions -- Part 3: Human process interventions -- Chapter 12: Interpersonal and group process approaches -- Chapter 13: Organization process approaches -- Part 4: Technostructural interventions -- Chapter 14: Restructuring organizations -- Chapter 15: Employee involvement -- Chapter 16: Work design -- Part 5: Human resource management interventions -- Chapter 17: Performance management -- Chapter 18: Developing talents -- Chapter 19: Managing workforce diversity and wellness -- Part 6: Strategic change interventions -- Chapter 20: Transformational change -- Chapter 21: Continuous change -- Chapter 22: Transorganizational change -- Part 7: Special applications of organization development -- Chapter 23: Organization development in global settings -- Chapter 24: Organization developmentin nonindustrial settings: health care, school systems, the public sector, and family-owned businesses -- Chapter 25: Future directions in organization developement.
