Recenzii
'Charting a course between sound scientific insight and the recipe style of popular management texts is not easy. The authors have succeeded in doing that and blend practical examples with valuable insights. This is a book for those who are serious about achieving meaningful change in the workplace.' Tim May, University of Salford, UK 'Roger Klev and Morten Levin have written a comprehensive work that bridges significant gaps between theory and practice among various streams of literature in organization theory, OD, and management. Drawing on their broad knowledge of the scholarly literature and shaped by their experience the authors provide valuable guidance for understanding the complexity of organizational change. It is a comprehensive resource.' Lyle Yorks, Columbia University, USA

Descriere
In Participative Transformation Roger Klev and Morten Levin insist that essential in organizational change is the leader’s ability to orchestrate participative learning and developmental processes. Drawing on pragmatic philosophy, the authors' experience of organizational development initiatives and on action research, this book connects practical change-related activity with a broader critical and theoretical perspective. Practical guidance includes advice on starting up an organizational development process and dealing with situations where years of being controlled by others needs challenging, to actively engage employees in shaping their own work conditions. Readers will learn how experiencing both negative and positive results may well be a good basis for continued development. It is through systematic experiments that one can develop the organization, and this entails the possibility of making mistakes. There is even guidance on how to handle an organizational development process when it is in terminal trouble, to ensure there is still learning from it.
