Due to societal modernization dynamics, legal, political, economic, and social influencing factors are shifting for many educational institutions. To adapt to these relatively rapidly changing environments, to structure processes and structures appropriately for the tasks, and to make the organization as a whole flexible and capable of learning, many institutions are now consciously engaging in intended and systematic organizational development processes. This volume addresses this topic and, in addition to specifying the change factors affecting the institutions, provides extensive foundations and resources for organizational development and consulting. It discusses the most relevant topics for educational managers from both theoretical and application-oriented perspectives.
