Don't manage change-create a change-ready company Renowned management expert Ed Lawler and coauthor Chris Worley show how to create an organization that encourages experimentation, learning about new practices and technologies, monitoring the environment, assessing performance, and a commitment to continuously improving performance. Accomplishing this requires designing organizations that have strategies, structures, reward systems, communication processes, and human resource management practices that are designed to change, and that encourage continuous and rapid change within organizations. Edward E. Lawler III (Los Angeles, CA) is Director of the Center for Effective Organizations at the University of Southern California. Christopher G. Worley (San Juan Capistrano, CA) is an Associate Professor of Business Strategy at Pepperdine University's Graziadio School of Business and Management.
