Organizations today face unprecedented challenges. The marketplace changes at almost every turn: Product lines come and go, new competitors arise almost overnight. At the same time, the employee base needed to cope with these strains is becoming increasingly diverse. The authors of The Change Equation have addressed these two seemingly distinct problems in one management solution: Organizational Plurality. The Change Equation shows how to tap into the power of the diversity already in your organization and turn it into a "pluralistic" workplace where change is not something to resist but something to embrace. Organizational change agents, business leaders, human resource managers, and anyone who wants to make his or her organization stronger and more competitive will find in this readable volume a wealth of practical solutions that will help any forward-looking organization thrive in the new economy.
