Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Interest in business re-engineering has increased sharply. However, mixed messages and hype are reducing the value of this powerful philosophy. This book is intended to help people understand BPR, and lift some of the fog surrounding the subject. It compares BPR to other change philosophies, and explores why organizations are turning to it. By analyzing the underpinning elements of the organization, and exploring the basic principles in process design, the book then discusses how organizations can redesign their processes, and highlights the two main approaches to BPR. This work is intended for students at undergraduate and MBA level studying for Organisation Theory/Development and Strategic Management.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 249-250) and index.
