Abstract

Purpose This study aims to discuss the tension between the almost universal existence of ongoing change management initiatives, the speed of C Suite transitions and the shrinking of middle management. Design/methodology/approach This viewpoint looks at coverage of change management initiatives and the statistics on management transitions across different industries. Findings The review of the data suggests that the increase in change management initiatives set against senior management instability and the shrinkage in middle management is leading to diminishing returns. The author suggests that increasing stability and consistency in core areas is becoming more important to corporate financial success. Originality/value While change management has been extensively studied, little attention has been paid to the juxtaposition of these initiatives with senior management fluidity and shrinking middle management resources.

豹子的斑点:变化改变管理

本研究旨在讨论几乎普遍存在的持续变革管理计划、C Suite转型的速度和中层管理人员的萎缩之间的紧张关系。设计/方法论/方法这个观点着眼于变更管理计划的覆盖范围，以及跨不同行业的管理过渡的统计数据。对数据的回顾表明，针对高级管理人员不稳定的变革管理举措的增加和中层管理人员的萎缩导致了收益递减。作者认为，提高核心领域的稳定性和一致性对企业的财务成功越来越重要。原创性/价值虽然变革管理得到了广泛的研究，但很少有人注意到这些举措与高级管理人员的流动性和中层管理人员资源的萎缩并存。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Business Strategy publishes articles with a practical focus designed to help readers develop successful business strategies. Articles should say something new or different and may propose a unique perspective. They should not offer prescriptions to CEOs on how to manage, but rather be directed toward middle and senior managers at companies of all sizes and types, as well as consultants and academics who want to think about their businesses in new ways. Coverage: As one of the few journals dedicated to business strategy, JBS defines strategy in the broadest sense and thus covers topics as diverse as marketing strategy, innovation, developments in the global economy, mergers & acquisition integration and human resources. We have a penchant for substantive, provocative and well-written articles. We also like to break the mould and include articles on topics readers are unlikely to find in other business publications.
