Abstract
Organizations invite unions by poor management. The arrival of a union is a statement that significant organizational change is needed. Managing after the union comes should focus on seizing the initiative for organizational change and enlarging management control. Nonunionized agencies should evaluate their susceptibility to unionization and take preventive action.
