Perspectives

As someone involved in organizational change since the early 1980's I believe that organizational change can and should be implemented differently to the past as all too few deliver what is expected - many bruise and harm staff relationships so countering some of the perceived benefits. This is in the end my contribution towards managers and leaders knowledge of change in the future. Where change already is full of Disruption that is characterized with fast pace, uncertainty and lack of clear data.
