Recenzii
'This is a very important book that opens up new arenas and vistas for organizational studies. Its key message that social change and organizations are deeply connected is one that we all need to hear and deal with. Its concern with critical social issues of sustainability, healthcare, poverty and low-wage work is, again, something that we all need to hear and deal with. The book provides a powerful voice for using a positive lens to further our understanding and stimulate our imagination. It will be a significant addition to my bookshelf.' - C.R. (Bob) Hinings, University of Alberta, Canada
'This is a super book. It moves beyond traditional perspectives to give a fresh impetus to understanding social change and organizations. The 'positive lens' has reinvigorated organizational scholarship in recent years and this book showcases the strengths of that approach.' - Royston Greenwood, University of Alberta, Canada
'This groundbreaking work promises to add a new positive dimension to understanding and enabling social and organizational change processes. Its diverse collection of innovative chapters and stunning applications of positive scholarship make this a must read for anyone interested in positive psychology, organizational development, and social change.' - Stewart I. Donaldson, Claremont Graduate University, California, USA
'This book will make a contribution to the positive organizational research and will emphasize the role of organizations in social change, linking organizations research to important problems in society and humanity. We clearly need more research on this topic.' - Anne Tsui, Arizona State University, USA
'This book will open new and important research frontiers and is destined to be a ‘must have’ volume for scholars and informed practitioners interested in examining the processes by which organizations create and sustain social change in the environment. For too long, organizational scholars have taken a limited approach to the interface between organizations and their environments. The time is absolutely right for this book.' - Belle Rose Ragins, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, USA
'The major social changes of the last decade, such as the shift to an enhanced security state and the growth of a risk society, the crisis of casino capitalism, the socialization of private financial institutions’ debt, and the fiscal crisis of the North Atlantic nations, as well as global warming and the inadequacy of policy responses to it, should all be spurs to positive thinking. Interesting times that are more positive would be welcome and in this volume the contributors all seek to accentuate the positive in individuals and organizations making change for good happen.' - Stewart Clegg, University of Technology Sydney Business School, Australia
