A fresh approach to managing organizational change by looking at it as complex, dynamic and messy as opposed to a series of neat, linear stages and processes leading to success. Key to the approach is the idea that change, creativity and innovation all overlap and interconnect rather than being three separate areas of study and that managing the three together is central to organizations having the competitive edge in developing new technologies and techniques, products and services. The book continues to offer practical guidelines as well as a theoretical understanding of change, creativity and innovation. It delivers an equal balance of critical perspectives and sound ideas for organizational change and development and presents the idea that change can be proactive, driven by creativity and innovation. The new edition includes additional change management content including learning, personal change, managing the self, employability, developments in conventional Organizational Development and new emergent forms including appreciative inquiry. Along with a series of rich international case studies, including TNT Australia, Amazon, Leeds Rhinos, Jerusalem Paints, Alpha Pro Pump and KPMG. It is supported by a range of learning and revision aids including reflective exercises, review and discussion questions and hands-on research tasks. All of which help students to reflect on the material covered and provide a source for more open group discussion and debate. A companion website accompanies the book, with additional material including PowerPoint slides for lecturers and video links and access to SAGE journal articles for Students. Suitable for upper-level undergraduates and postgraduate students.

A great deal of value is placed on being recognized or regarded as an innovator. Nearly every company, business or organization lays claim to being an innovative expert or leader. However, the terms "innovating" and "innovation" have become so overused that they have all but lost their meaning. Productive innovation is much more than promotional or marketing slogans. Innovative ideas or acts have little or no value until they are economically implemented or produced in a productive, efficient and timely fashion that meets or exceeds the customer's need and expectation. The innovation process is a proven method of bringing an innovative idea to fruition. The objective of this book is to identify and review the principles, best practices and implementation of the innovation process. The book describes the author's experiences and success in innovating new products, technologies and businesses utilizing the innovation process during his more than 40 year research and development career. The stories and descriptions were selected to illustrate the various aspects and characteristics of innovation and the innovation process. The book is a call to action. The status of innovation in the US, how and why it declined and the critical need for innovators to reestablish the US as the innovation leader in the world is summarized. . The nature if innovation and innovators is also explored. The book analyzes the nature of innovation and the innovation process.
