Everything you want to know about Organisational Change
ISBN: 1849281971 | 2011 | PDF | 120 pages | 1,4 MB
This book considers such change in the modern context of IS/IT being both enablers (and sometimes inhibitors) of business change. IT is often considered to be inextricably linked to business - mostly by IT pundits; the popularity of outsourcing IT and the increasing profile of software as a service are proof points that business may not share that point of view. The book, therefore, does not hold IT as an essential partner in business. Instead, it considers first the human capital of change and second the role (or rather the potential role in many instances) that might be played by IT.

A modern comedy that explores the simple truth that it's never too late to start over again. Even at age 50. We meet two long-time golf-buddies, Adam, going through a trial separation from his wife of 15 years and Jon, who is not only losing work to the 'young guy', but also dealing with a 'generous' prostate. They decide to take off on a weekend journey to let loose and re-live the Palm Springs get-a-way of their younger days but meet with unexpected results. Struggling to fit in with the younger crowd, they find surprising comfort through encounters with women nearer their own age. As the weekend progresses, both are forced to come to a truce with middle life's predicaments. A film that asks the question, "If fifty is the new thirty then why do my knees ache?" in what may be the world's first coming of age story... about the coming of age.
