Lee G Bolman: Reframing Organizations, Gebunden

Klappentext

How do leaders navigate the complex realities of modern organizations? How can managers make sense of competing priorities, cultural differences, stakeholder demands and turbulent business environments? Why do some leaders succeed while others struggle, even with similar resources and challenges? In today's interconnected world, where organizations span continents and generations work side by side, understanding the fundamental frameworks of effective leadership has never been more critical for success.

In the newly revised eighth edition of Reframing Organizations: Artistry, Choice, and Leadership, Harvard Lecturer Lee G. Bolman builds on his work with the late Terrence E. Deal to deliver a time-tested four-frame model that has guided leaders for over 40 years. Drawing on his decades of research across organizational theory, psychology, sociology, and political science, Bolman provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and leading complex organizations using four distinct lenses: Structural, Human Resource, Political, and Symbolic.

This latest edition incorporates the most up-to-date research and addresses contemporary leadership challenges including cross-sector collaboration, generational differences in the workplace, virtual team management, globalization, sustainability initiatives, changing technologies, and cross-cultural communication. Updated with new case studies and real-world applications, the book demonstrates how leaders can apply multiple frames simultaneously to diagnose problems, develop solutions, and create more effective organizations. The framework has proven its value across industries and sectors, helping leaders transform their approach from reactive problem-solving to strategic, multi-dimensional thinking.

Perfect for current and aspiring managers, executives, directors, business students, entrepreneurs, and organizational researchers, Reframing Organizations provides practical wisdom for contemporary leaders. The book remains the definitive guide for anyone working to master organizational leadership.
