owned enterprises in Poland as a consequence of the transition to a
market economy. The study will examine the context of change in the
former COMICON state; the rationale supporting organisational change
activities; the triggers of change; organisation re-design; and the
diffusion of business process improvement techniques in Polish
manufacturing companies: lean production, total quality management,
benchmarking as examples. A comparison of the experiences of senior
managers in organisations undergoing change from within four sectors
of manufacturing in Poland will be explored.},
