The authors explore how, in a world characterized by relentless change and volatility, traditional bureaucracies of the past are increasingly regarded as being too slow and centralized. Instead, emerging ideas, such as platforms, ecosystems, holacracies, agility and improvisation are gaining purchase. Focusing on key trends and forms of design, the book offers an approach to organizing that accommodates paradoxes and offers a fresh view on managing organizational design. Rich in anecdotes and examples, the Elgar Introduction to Designing Organizations will be a useful guide for business and management scholars and advanced students with a focus on organizational studies and innovation. It will be beneficial for business managers thinking about how to design their organization so that it is fit for contemporary purposes"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aElgar introductions to management and organization theory. 606 $aOrganizational change 606 $aBusiness planning 606 $aOrganization 615 0$aOrganizational change. 615 0$aBusiness planning. 615 0$aOrganization. 676 $a658.406 700 $aCunha$b Miguel Pina e$01019744 712 02$aEdward Elgar Publishing, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910647236603321 996 $aElgar introduction to designing organizations$93017892 997 $aUNINA
