New methodologies are introduced, such as the strategic fitness process for engaging leaders in better understanding the reactions of employees to strategic change efforts (Beer); Jazz as a metaphor for organizational improvisation (Bernstein & Barrett); and new theories for understanding change processes (Gomez & Ballard). The universal constant is change, and various ideas about sustaining change (Fredberg, Norrgren & Shani), mapping momentum changes during change efforts (Jansen & Hoffman) and exploring Lewins notions of the criticality of social space to facilitate change (Friedman). Volume 19 demonstrates that as academics, we advance the work in our field by both looking forward and looking back. Understanding the origins of our theories and beliefs can be as important as pioneering new ideas and methodologies. As you read Volume 19, we ask you to consider your own contributions to our field and to contact us to suggest topics for future volumes.Organizational changeOrganizational change.302.35Pasmore William A1612606Shani Abraham B1607326Woodman Richard W1612605MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828064403321Research in organizational change and development3941495UNINA
