A member of the AWL OD Series! This book presents a conceptual framework for organizations that will help managers and change- practitioners to better understand organizations. Drawing on that framework, the book describes an approach for diagnosing failings in organizational functioning and for planning a comprehensive set of actions needed to change the organization into a more effective system.
