Reframing Organizations: Artistry, Choice, and Leadership, 7th Edition (2021) by Lee G. Bolman and Terrence E. Deal ??? published by Jossey-Bass ??? presents an elegant framework for more effective leadership. Bolman and Deal’s celebrated four-frame model has been transforming business leadership for over 40 years. Using a multidisciplinary approach to management, this deceptively simple model offers a powerful set of tools for navigating complexity and turbulence ??? and as the political and economic climate continues to evolve, this model has never been more relevant than today.The four frames in depth:The Structural Frame explores the convergence of organizational structure and function, and shows why social architecture must take environment into account. Case studies illustrate successful alignment in diverse organizations, and guidelines provide strategic insight for avoiding common pathologies and achieving the right fit.The Human Resource Frame dissects the complex dynamics at the intersection of people and organizations, and charts the leadership and human resource practices that build motivation and high performance.The Political Frame shows how competition, conflict, and the struggle for power and resources can be either a tool for the wise leader or a destructive force ??? and how to harness the political dynamics of organizations productively.The Symbolic Frame explores how leaders shape and use culture, ritual, story, and meaning to inspire people, build community, and align organizations around shared purpose.Topics covered: introduction to organizational analysis; the four frames as cognitive lenses for leadership; structural design and restructuring; people and organizations; coalitions, conflict, and political agility; organizational culture and symbolic leadership; integrating frames for effective practice; reframing change; reframing leadership ethics and the spirit of leadership; and the leader’s journey across personal and organizational development.Essential for: MBA and executive MBA programs; organizational behavior, leadership, and change management courses; nonprofit and educational leadership programs (EdD, EdLD); doctoral programs in higher education administration; healthcare administration; public administration (MPA); executive leadership development programs; consulting and OD practitioners; HR leaders; and any manager or leader navigating organizational complexity.
