Many organizational designs are possible, and some are better than others. An effective organization produces excellent results by any standard measure while enhancing the energy and commitment of its members. In the past 40 years, sociotechnical organizational development has proven more successful than any other system in improving bottom-line organizational effectiveness while also paying attention to human values. This book brings together information found scattered throughout the literature and in unpublished documents. Presenting a coherent, jargon-free account of successful sociotechnical design of organizations, it addresses the often difficult prospect of organizational change and presents numerous real-life examples.

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In this book, the author demonstrates how to design effective organizations using sociotechnical systems. The sociotechnical perspective considers every organization to be made up of people (the social system) using tools, techniques and knowledge (the technical system) to produce goods or services valued by customers (who are part of the organization's external environment). How well the social and technical systems are designed - with respect to one another and with respect to the demands of the external environment - determines to a large extent how effective the organization will be. This guide explains how to redesign organizations in light of the changing business environment. It considers organizations as open systems, outlining important propositions concerning the influence of the environment on organization design, and reviews the principles of sociotechnical systems design which guide the integration of social and technical systems in the context of the environment. The book focuses on the sociotechnical systems change process, and includes a discussion of the unique role of leaders in innovative sociotechnical systems. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 00107093396
