Dalla quarta di copertina

Managing Complexity in Organizations is a lively new text written by academics from one of the world's leading business schools. Using a series of global case studies from a variety of industries, the authors outline their frameworks for understanding and managing complexity.

The book examines the role of complexity theory in organizations and the importance of flexibility in decision-making. Managing Complexity in Organizations goes on to discuss how flexibility allows for improved, quicker responses to ongoing change - a necessity in today's unpredictable business environment. The authors present four key drivers of complexity: diversity; interdependence; ambiguity; and fast flux, thereby providing the reader with an effective and thorough understanding of how businesses can successfully adapt and respond to constant change.

Applying complexity theory to business organizations, Managing Complexity in Organizations: Text and Cases is an essential companion for MBA, EMBA and executive education programs.
