Report
"Janssen critically examines the failure of organizational change efforts and proposes an antidote. He contends that by systematically applying the emerging science of enterprise engineering, organizations can permanently create more long-term value for their stakeholders. I agree. ... If you are an organizational change manager (OCM) or a business analyst (BA), stop, look, and listen to what Janssen has to say." (Ernest Hughes, computingreviews.com, May, 2016)
