Résumé

Extract from the preface

"My vision for the eighth edition of Organization Theory and Design is to integrate contemporary thinking about organization design with classic ideas and theories in a way that is interesting and enjoyable for students. This edition has undergone a transformation. Significant changes have been made in many areas, including a new chapter, major revisions of several chapters to incorporate the most recent ideas, new case examples, new book reviews, new end-of-chapter cases, and new end-of-book integrative cases. The research and theories in the field of organization studies are rich and insightful, and will help students and managers understand their organizational world and solve real-life problems. My mission is to integrate the concepts and models from organizational theory with changing events in the real world to provide the most up-to-date view of organization design available..."
