Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes an in-depth look at the contrasting fortunes of a novel production planning system implemented in two factories of the same division within a major corporation. Through the study of historical company documents and interviews with people who worked on the project, the author examines how concepts of politics and power help explain resistance to organizational change, particularly when it comes to new technologies. The author argues that the system's success or failure at each factory was significantly affected by how well it aligned with pre-existing power structures, reflecting struggles over resources, influence, and the allocation of rewards. This book will be of interest to anyone who has ever wondered why employees or colleagues resist new technologies or ways of doing things, or why some changes succeed while others fail. By shedding light on these dynamics, this book makes an important contribution to the business and management literature on the implementation of new technologies.
