From organizational development to change management: the emergence of a new profession - 1999 - p.273-86 - Sep

This article describes the emergence of change management as a service offering of major consulting firms. The authors compare change management with traditional organizational development (OD) in terms of theory and analytical framework, the role of the interventionist, and intervention strategies. They argue that change management has the potential to become a discipline that can unite the different "thought worlds" operating in the field of planned organizational change. - Reproduced
