Why Organizational Change Fails
Change in organizations can arise spontaneously, or it can begin in response to a planned process of change. Even planned change is not as predictable as one might like it to be; it is often partial or incomplete, or the results of change may not be what one hoped. The aspects of an organization that resist change can be vital to an organization's success, helping to keep it firm, stable, and robust. Why Organizational Change Fails aims to make change managers and OD consultants sensitive to signals of the robust part of an organization, helping them to see something different than they usually see: signs of change. The authors distinguish two aspects of stability in organisations: robustness and tenacity. Robustness is the ability of organisations to remain stable under changing conditions. Tenacity is the reaction of a robust system to planned change. Each of these aspects has its own unique qualities and value within organizations. In the book, the authors describe three aspects of robustness: social, cognitive and political. They also describe healthy and unhealthy forms. Tenacity is described in three patterns: bouncing back, smothering and calculating. Each chapter of the book is preceded by an essay written by a leading scientist designed to help provide real-world context for the process of change and offering insights for the reader on either side of the change equation.

Meer dan de som der delen
Systeemdenkers over organiseren en veranderenMeer dan de som der delen geeft een overzicht van de belangrijkste systeemdenkers over organiseren en veranderen. In tien delen staat telkens een andere systeembenadering centraal. Daarbinnen belichten de veertig auteurs een grondlegger, theorie of methode en verbinden die met hun eigen professionele praktijk. De delen en hoofdstukken laten zich prima afzonderlijk lezen. Het boek als geheel toont de samenhang tussen de verschillende benaderingen. Brechtje Kessener en Leike van Oss zijn erin geslaagd om de verbanden tussen de verschillende benaderingen zichtbaar te maken. Voor elke benadering schetsen zij een intrigerend verhaal waarin de lezer zicht krijgt op wat het systeem is, hoe de mens daarin een rol speelt en hoe de organisatieprofessional dit kan gebruiken. Meer dan de som der delen maakt het brede spectrum aan systeembenaderingen zichtbaar op een toegankelijke manier. Het geeft zicht op wat er binnen organisaties gebeurt en biedt voor organisatieprofessionals een onderbouwing voor hun professionele handelen. Daarmee is het een onmisbaar boek voor adviseurs, managers, beleidsmedewerkers en studenten. Brechtje Kessener is organisatieadviseur, programmamanager en docent. Leike van Oss is organisatieadviseur, interim-manager, (gast-)docent en coauteur van o.a. Onderweg (Ooa Boek van het Jaar, shortlist Managementboek van het Jaar) en Onomkeerbaar. Sinds 2012 organiseren zij samen de Sioo Studieweek Systemen, waarin de verschillende benaderingen ervaren kunnen worden. ‘The map is not the territory’ – Gregory Bateson
