Editorial Reviews
Book Description
From the University of Michigan Business School: new research and analysis on key problems that derail organizations.

Corrosive organizational politics...serving two (or more) masters...overworked people...analysis paralysis. These are the kinds of problems that organizations are grappling with as they continue to demand better performance from fewer resources. And these are the problems that bestselling author Robert E. Quinn and his colleagues from the University of Michigan Business School meticulously analyze--and offer compelling solutions to--in PRESSING PROBLEMS IN MODERN ORGANIZATIONS Based on research that is theoretically grounded, methodologically rigorous, and relevant to the real world, this book bridges the gap between organizational theory and actual practice--to supply a new framework for understanding and solving today's most urgent organizational problems.
