Checklist of Org. Problems
KC Lim, Malaysia
"Well, this checklist will be what the textbooks say. However, it appears that in real life, despite all these problems, some organizations do thrive.
The main reason for this success will of course be the economic situation (with the current meltdown, it will be interesting to see what management theories will arise to sustain the companies).
A second reason for ignoring these problems is that it takes a lot of efforts, time and money to address them. This is weighed off against the same to improve overall company sales and profits." |

Look for positive shared needs first
Erwin Gijzen, Netherlands
"A great checklist in itself. In using it though, be careful not to focus on negatives. Instead, look for a positive shared need you can make people enthousiastic about. Then use the list to remove some of the biggest hurdles." |

Interesting Era for Managing Change
Thornton Joubert, UK
"There is definetly a era ushering in that will require a "different animal" to manage change. I feel that the main focus the next year or two will be that whatever change is identified, will have to be cost effective or else don't do it." |

Checklist of Organizational Problem Areas
R Hallagan, USA
"Depending on the business you're in, I suppose many more could be added; however, if an organization has too many of these, remember that you are only looking at the symptoms, not the root of the problem(s). Multiple problems always lead to a 5. failure in competent leadership at the top." |
