Falkenberg and her colleagues examine the issue of excessive change in organizations, which they define as the simultaneous pursuit of multiple unrelated changes. Real and Poole develop a framework for classifying approaches to conceptualizing and measuring innovation implementation. Roth provides a case description of knowledge creation stemming from a team composed of university, business, and consulting organizations.Ferdig and Ludema examine change via self-organizing processes at the U.S. National Regulatory Commission, the government agency that monitors nuclear reactors. Wischnevsky and Damanpour explore the punctuated equilibrium model of organizational transformation in the banking industry. Golembiewski and his colleagues address the application of organization development across cultures, specifically the use of OD within those cultures where Confucian ideas are prominent. Coghlan and Coughlan report on the CO-IMPROVE project - an action research initiative funded by the European Union. Finally, Yeager, Sorensen and Bengtsson assess the current state-of-the-use of appreciative inquiry in programs of organizational change. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xOrganizational Behavior$2bisacsh 606 $aPsychology$xApplied Psychology$2bisacsh 606 $aOrganizational theory & behaviour$2bicssc 606 $aSocial, group or collective psychology$2bicssc 606 $aOrganizational change 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xOrganizational Behavior. 615 7$aPsychology$xApplied Psychology. 615 7$aOrganizational theory & behaviour. 615 7$aSocial, group or collective psychology. 615 0$aOrganizational change. 676 $a658.4 676 $a658.406 676 $a658.40605 701 $aWoodman$b Richard W$01612605 701 $aPasmore$b William A$01612606 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819501203321 996 $aResearch in organizational change and development$94036885 997 $aUNINA
