Dr Annette Boshoff
This is an excellent guide to use once change is expected in an organisation. To be proactive is a characteristic of successful managers. In the corporate environment where your organisation is part of of holding company, you are sometimes surprised by the announcement of change. There is enough information in this publication for handling small changes as well as "killing the fires" when big changes are announced. It can be succesfully used as an additional literature source in both 1st and 2nd year of university studies in modules such as Business Management and Human Resource Management.
