Eric Abrahamson Biography

Professor Abrahamson researches the development, dissemination, use, and rejection of novel management approaches for businesses and their workers. He is well recognized for his research on management fads and trends. He is also a specialist in the field of change management. Change Without Pain: How Managers Can Overcome Initiative Overload, Organizational Chaos, and Employee Burnout (Harvard Business School Press, 2005), which earned a Best Book of the Year award from Strategy and Business, delves into the issue of change management. Abrahamson has recently been researching the dynamics of moderately messy systems - workplaces, companies, and even industrial districts - that would perform worse if they were less chaotic or more ordered. Disorganization Theory and Disorganizational Behavior: Towards an Etiology of Messes, a synopsis of his scholarly work, was published in Research in Organizational Behavior under the title Disorganization Theory and Disorganizational Behavior: Towards an Etiology of Messes (2002). Recently, Abrahamson and David Freedman coauthored a book that popularises similar concepts regarding the advantages of a somewhat chaotic system: A Perfect Mess: The Unexpected Benefits of Disorganization, How messy workplaces, untidy closets, and impromptu planning make the world a better place (Little, Brown and Company, 2007).
