520 # $a "Given today's context of tough change, organizations are seeking to innovate and execute an effective strategy quickly and efficiently. Key to this is agility - the ability to continuously adapt rapidly to changing circumstances. At the same time, resilience, the capacity to bounce back from setbacks, is also essential if benefits are going to endure over the longer term and if employees are to be kept on board. The Agile Organization therefore focuses on how to build both agility and resilience at individual, team and organizational levels. It draws on the lived experience and learning of HR managers, organizational development (OD) professionals and other change agents, to make sense of what really happens. It shows how, despite today's complex and turbulent environment, 'squaring the circle' of achieving organizational agility while maintaining and enhancing employee engagement and resilience is possible. The Agile Organization showcases the latest thinking on new organizational models and ground-breaking themes which affect the way HR leaders, OD specialists and senior executives need to think about organizational transformations and the new 'business as usual'"-- $c Provided by publisher.
