Based on extensive fieldwork covering 22 organizations in three core industriesùsteel, textiles, and engineeringùCoping with Technological Change presents an integrated approach toward understanding problems related to technology change. Author Manik Kher examines industry-specific and region-specific variations in technology implementation arising from differences in the work culture and in the industrial relations environment. These variations are analyzed systematically at the level of both the industry and the enterprise. The author also highlights sector differences. This timely volume explores how the intensity of the conflicts that tend to accompany technological change can be reduced using several techniques, including information sharing, worker involvement, transparency, training, and building a conducive work atmosphere. While outlining the future course of industrial relations and drawing lessons for management, Kher also focuses on the wider implications of creating a harmonious work culture. For students of business as well as managers on the front line, Coping with Technological Change explores pertinent issues and shows how to make transitions smoother.
