Description:This handbook provides a conceptual discussion of change management and an overview of organizational change in Africa. Additionally, it addresses issues of international concern and comparative aspects of organizational change management.A defining feature of the extensive discourse on organizational change is its predominant focus on change efforts of organizations in the West. Over the past two decades or so, the previously underperforming economies of sub-Saharan Africa have been experiencing a form of economic renaissance with some of these countries averaging annual growth rates in the region of 6%. Indeed, so impressive has the performance of these economies been that this development is said to herald the emergence of the continent as a pole of global growth. Among the imperatives for this economic transformation is the ability of African organizations to ride the storm of change. While globalization has created opportunities for organizations in Africa, they face the challenge of effectively exploiting these opportunities in order to survive and grow.This handbook aims to address the gap in the change management literature in Africa and provide an actionable knowledge base that organizations may draw on to effectively manage change. The handbook aims to address among others such issues as: What are the external and internal pressures for change? How do organizations discern these pressures? What is the content and process of change? What role do leaders play in the change management process? How do they address resistance to change? How do organizations build an internal change management capability? How do they assess the effectiveness of change management efforts? Taken together, these issues are underpinned by the realization that organizational survival in an increasingly dynamic environment is contingent upon their agility and adaptability. This handbook contributes to the literature by adopting a contextual, historical, processual, and strategic orientation to change management.This handbook is an essential reference for academics, researchers and advanced students of change management, development studies and African studies as well as practitioners.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
