| Sumario: | Volume 19 of Research in Organizational Change and Development includes papers by an international diverse set of authors including Michael Beer, Victor Friedman, Luiz Gomez & Donna Ballard, Ethan Berstein & Frank Barrett, Karen Jansen & David Hoffman, Guido Maes & Geert Van Hootegem, and Tobias Fredberg, Flemming Norrgren & Rami Shani. The ideas expressed by these authors are as diverse as their backgrounds. New methodologies are introduced, such as the strategic fitness process for engaging leaders in better understanding the reactions of employees to strategic change efforts (Beer); Jazz as a metaphor for organizational improvisation (Bernstein & Barrett); and new theories for understanding change processes (Gomez & Ballard). The universal constant is change, and various ideas about sustaining change (Fredberg, Norrgren & Shani), mapping momentum changes during change efforts (Jansen & Hoffman) and exploring Lewin's notions of the criticality of social space to facilitate change (Friedman). While Research in Organizational Change and Development has been the foremost repository of theoretical ideas, in-depth discussions of the literature and new approaches to intervention and research for over twenty years, authors in this and other volumes are asked to draw connections between their ideas and practice as well. Volume 19 demonstrates that as academics, we advance the work in our field by both looking forward and looking back. Understanding the origins of our theories and beliefs can be as important as pioneering new ideas and methodologies. As you read Volume 19, we ask you to consider your own contributions to our field and to contact us to suggest topics for future volumes. We will be excited to hear from you, and to learn about the new directions you propose for our profession. |
