Synopsis
The business world is constantly transforming. When restructures, mergers, bankruptcies, and layoffs hit the workplace, employees and managers naturally find the resulting situational shifts to be challenging. But the psychological transitions that accompany them are even more stressful. Organizational transitions affect people; it is always people, rather than a company, who have to embrace a new situation and carry out the corresponding change. As veteran business consultant William Bridges explains, transition is successful when employees have a purpose, a plan, and a part to play. This indispensable guide is now updated to reflect the challenges of today's ever-changing, always-on, and globally connected workplaces. Directed at managers on all rungs of the corporate ladder, this expanded edition of the classic bestseller provides practical, step-by-step strategies for minimizing disruptions and navigating uncertain times., Business consultant William Bridges attacks an area of managing change that many not only avoid, but also do not even recognize--the human side of change. Directed at managers and employees in today's corporations, where change is necessary to revitalize and improve corporate performance, this book addresses the fact that it is people who have to carry out the change., A practical guide to help managers and employees understand and successfully cope with organizational change., Every day the newspapers report more corporate mergers and restructuring. Every day thousands of lives are altered by these changes. Most managers and employees, however, do not have the experience to effectively work through such transitions. In Managing Transitions, William Bridges provides a clear understanding of what change does to employees and what employees in transition can do to an organization, and he shows how to minimize the distress and disruptions caused by change.Directed at managers and employees in today's corporations, where change is necessary to revitalize and improve corporate performance, Managing Transitions addresses the fact that it is people who have to carry out the change. It not only talks about what should be done, but also shows how to do it, giving managers practical ways to bring the people "on board." Armed with this new information, managers will look at future changes in a new way, no longer feeling anxious and hopeless, but rather looking at opportunities.Everybody talks about "managing change" and "resistance to change," but Bridges is the first to talk about what is going on inside the people who have to make the change work. He is the first to provide any real sense of the emotional impact of change and what can be done to keep it from disrupting the entire organization. Bridges's years of experience helping organizations and individuals successfully take control of change has proven the need for specific, concrete guidelines for dealing with change. Managing Transitions provides these guidelines.

    They were shipped to the correct address in Pine Island MN in great condition and packaged in a way that they arrived in excellent condition. Since they are exactly as described I am very pleased. They're exactly the value I wanted, and they were delivered to the correct address in Minnesota not Florida, where two of my other items went to!

  • "Transitions" mean different things in different situations

    Very good content - seems like it should be for "business people" - but it not only that, but anyone going through "transitional situations" in their lives. I am, and this was very compelling and gave me insight as to exactly what I AM going through at this time. And help in dealing with those situations!
