Consultancy is a highly profitable sector that relies on the development and application of tools and techniques that promise success for the organizations it serves. These promises include transformation, increased efficiency, effectiveness, and even cultural change. However, a crucial and essential question arises: Do these promises hold true in everyday organizational practice? Can consultants accurately predict and control the changes that their clients request? This volume redefines the role of consultants from detached observers with a stable body of knowledge applicable in all contexts to skilled participants in the conscious and unconscious processes of organizational life.
In this book, one of three in a series exploring complexity and management, expert authors come together to offer vibrant accounts of how to lead in everyday organizational situations through practical judgment. The book includes a brief historical introduction to complexity and leadership, real-world narratives illustrating concrete dilemmas in the workplace, and a concluding chapter that brings together the practical and theoretical implications.
With a strong foundation in theory and practical insights from managers and consultants in leading firms, this book is an invaluable resource for executives, students, and individuals pursuing leadership development and talent management programs, as well as those enrolled in higher education courses in leadership and consulting.
