商品描述

Whenever a plan for organizational change is unveiled, it is invariably accompanied by assurances that the speed of change will be exceptionally rapid and will surpass any historical standards. However, it is hardly surprising that an examination of organizational change in practice reveals many instances where change progresses at a considerably slower pace. This edited volume explores the reality of speed in organizational change. Is the pace of change truly accelerating? Is speed always desirable in organizational change? What impact does the promotion of "speed" have on our perceptions of the change process?

Surprisingly, there is limited debate surrounding the speed of change within organizations. One contributing factor to this lack of discussion is the scarcity of research explicitly addressing the issue. This book includes chapters that explore different organizational contexts and perspectives, including technological developments and AI, the role of globalization, charismatic entrepreneurs, sports clubs, and the impact of management education. It will be of great interest to scholars and students of organization studies, strategy, entrepreneurship, and innovation.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

每當組織變革計畫被揭示時,總是伴隨著對變革速度的保證,聲稱變革將會異常迅速,並超越任何歷史標準。然而,對於組織變革的實際檢視卻顯示出許多情況下變革的進展速度遠比預期緩慢。本書探討了組織變革中速度的現實。變革的速度真的在加快嗎?在組織變革中,速度是否總是可取的?推動「速度」對我們對變革過程的認知有什麼影響?

令人驚訝的是,關於組織內變革速度的討論相對有限。造成這種缺乏討論的原因之一是針對該議題的研究相對稀少。本書包含了探討不同組織背景和觀點的章節,包括技術發展與人工智慧、全球化的角色、魅力型企業家、體育俱樂部以及管理教育的影響。這將對組織研究、策略、創業和創新領域的學者和學生產生極大的興趣。
