Organisational Change: Development and Transformation is a book describing change management as a challenge, particularly as the environment in which we work is in such a volatile state. The world of managing organisation development (OD), which is a planned process of change, continues to change dramatically as the terminology vacillates
towards organisational transformation (OT), a more dramatic and unpredictable process. Leaders, and in particular change agents, are faced with conflicting challenges, such as understanding and motivating an increasingly diverse workforce, being open and accountable to a wide range of stakeholders, planning for the future in an increasingly chaotic environment, considering the ethical implications of decision making and many more unanticipated issues.
