Online resources: Summary: Article Abstract: Bolman and Deal consolidate key learnings from organization theory into four practical, easy-to-understand perspectives or "frames": structural, human resource, political, and symbolic. These frames provide a complete portrait of an organization and allow managers to clarify issues and create a flexible, dynamic, "big picture" management strategy. Using numerous examples from business, education, health care, and the public sector, the authors demonstrate how to integrate these four frames into a powerful and coherent strategy that can be applied to any organization. Drawing on a wealth of new material, fresh insights, and current examples, this more concise second edition of Reframing Organizations provides a sharp perspective on the rapidly changing business and political climate of the late 1990s
