CHANGE_

-
Les changements organisationnels au sein des ONG_)

                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
_Grabbing the Tiger by the Tail_ is about managing organizational
learning
and change in voluntary and non-governmental organizations - a subject
of
intense interest today.

The book provides practical methodologies, tools and case studies to
enhance the organizational learning. _Grabbing the Tiger by the Tail_
describes key change concepts and approaches. It examines typical
barriers
to change, and the dynamics and issues involved in organizational
culture,
strategy and structure. The case studies have been developed by the
authors, drawing directly on the experience of non-governmental
development organizations in Canada and overseas.
