title: Organizational transition: managing through rough waters.
abstract: Managing during restructuring is a little like managing during a tidal wave or an earthquake. The environment is turbulent, unpredictable, often personally threatening, and laden with long term consequences. As in a natural disaster, you must plan ahead, keep the short term in focus, and the long term in perspective.
