Synopsis

This book considers such change in the modern context of IS/IT being both enablers (and sometimes inhibitors) of business change. IT is often considered to be inextricably linked to business - mostly by IT pundits; the popularity of outsourcing IT and the increasing profile of software as a service are proof points that business may not share that point of view. The book, therefore, does not hold IT as an essential partner in business. Instead, it considers first the human capital of change and second the role (or rather the potential role in many instances) that might be played by IT.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Your organisation can benefit from change. This book will show you how.

Why do organisations change? What are the risks involved? Can we resist change? What is the best way to manage it? What are the key factors that drive change, and how? Why are some changes easier to survive than others?

These are just some of the questions that Darren Arcangel and Brian Johnson address inEverything you want to know about Organisational Change. This practical guide recognises that every organisation functions differently, has different goals, and faces different challenges. It will give you the tools you need to understand the factors influencing your organisation, to identify how your business must respond, and to implement the necessary changes. Your organisation will survive and become more efficient.

Given particular consideration is the role of IT in managing change, and the way in which it can be both an enabler and an inhibitor of change. This book will show you how to use IT to maximum effect, smoothing your path to change and minimising potential problems. Your business will function much more efficiently, effectively and profitably.
