Papers from a summer 1998 conference held at the Harvard Business School give insight on organizational change and change management. Material is organized around two opposing theories of change, one based on the creation of economic value, and the other on building organizational capabilities for the long term. Structured in an engaging point-counterpoint style, material overviews the strengths and weaknesses of each theory along with every dimension of the change process, from motivation to leadership to compensation issues. The editors teach business administration at Harvard Business School. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
