Narratives of Organisational Change and Learning

"Narratives of Organisational Change and Learning" investigates change and learning through the comparative and contextual analysis of organisational stories. It focuses on how organisational actors make sense of and learn from profound change as exemplified by three manufacturing firms from Britain, South Africa and Russia.

The book also explores the complex responses to organisational change epitomised by patterns of stories prevalent in each of the three organisations, as well as the important insights into often unacknowledged narrative processes of learning which result from profound change.
