Abstract

Purpose - The Purpose of this paper is to conceptualise the relationship between novels and organizational change and to introduce this special issue of the Journal of Organizational Change Management. Design/methodology/approach - The themes of the special issue are discussed and each paper is introduced. Findings - The relationship between novels and organizational change is a complex, iterative one that should be understood in its historical, political, economic And cultural context. If so understood, novels can enhance our understanding of organizational processes. Originality/value - Although literature and representation in general have been discussed in studies of organization and management before, the specific literary form of the novel has not been theorised in relation to the question of novelty and organizational change.
