Abstract

Growth in demands on the bank's "back office" required a totally new approach to management. New stress on systems orientation, objectives, measurement, process design and control has resulted in lower costs, fewer people, and higher quality. Also resulted in fear, suspicion, and alienation in middle management. How to get the benefits of change without the unanticipated consequences?
