| Zusammenfassung: | In Managing Radical Change, Jerry Want identifies the six major change forces that are at work in the marketplace today and how they are permanently altering the course and direction of business. Entire industries are vanishing - the Thrift industry being one. Once impregnable corporations such as IBM, GM, Digital Equipment, and United Airlines have stumbled badly while once familiar names such as E.F. Hutton, Pan Am, and NCR have disappeared all together. Jerry Want shows why most companies fail to manage change along with the consequences of those failures. At a time when business fads and fix-its are failing, he proposes innovative actions that are being taken by successful companies that are not just coping with change - they are creating it To better understand radical change and how it is impacting today's business world, Want introduces the Business Change Cycle, a proven process for helping business organizations chart their current performance while building critical new change strategies within a radically changing business climate. The Business Change Cycle does not predict the future, but instead helps business leaders and managers make decisions that need to be made now in order to stay ahead of radically changing market forces. Through a unique partnership with leading authorities from each of seven key American industries - manufacturing, telecommunications, airlines, information technology, Wall Street, pharmaceuticals, and health care - expert co-authors provide the reader with an "insider's" view of why specific companies have failed, why others have succeeded, and what they all have to do to better manage change Utilizing Want's Business Change Cycle, each industry author provides the reader with a unique look at how their respective industries are coping with radically changing business conditions |
