The development of a dynamic, unpredictable organizational environment is required for organizations to manage changes to survive. This research aims to explore the approach of managing change in the organization and the factors of resistance to change. This study uses this type of literature research, by tracing articles, books, and documents relevant to this study. The results found there are six steps in making organizational changes, namely: Forces for change, Diagnosis of the problem, Selection appropriate methode, impediment and limiting condition, Implementation of method, evaluation programe. While factors cause resistance to change, include: habits, fear of unwanted things, economic factors, lack of confidence in the work situation, fear of failure, loss of status or job security, no benefit gained from change.  The success of changes in the organization is heavily influenced by leadership factors. Therefore, strong, visionary, and transformational leadership is needed to achieve the goals of change in the organization.

This article describes how higher education providers are adapting their training offers to comply with social challenges and quality issues. The tremendous evolution of ICTEs provides new pedagogical opportunities, making not only possible but simpler multimedia-based e-learning and distance learning with educational videos. Our learners in WIL evolve as engineers thanks to a Formative Work Situation in the company. Active pedagogy reinforces the ownership of knowledge, which is then put into practice at work to improve skills, but the key lever to overcome resistance to change is the support by a duo of tutors in the winning-trio. Thus, this proposal for Tutoring Integrated Learning (TIL) promotes the Continuous Education of the learner-tutors. Applying the same pedagogical approach (“learn by doing”), TIL is based on a Formative Tutoring Work Situation supported by distance self-training with videos for specific knowledge, then guidance by expert-tutors and debriefings in the team to improve their skills. Results are the tutors' proficiency and a shared tutoring culture.

Organizational redesign was studied at an industrial company. The outcome was documented during a two-years period by means of interviews, questionnaires and documentation material. The aim of the study was to describe and analyze what aspects of work industrial workers found important while in the midst of the organizational redesign. Workers considered personal responsibility, variation in tasks, and control over their work situation the most important factors. Much more information and performance feedback from management was desired. They also wanted more possibilities to influence decisions regarding their work and greater freedom to plan their work activities. Workers had conforming needs with respect to their desired work situation, even though they rated their existing work situation differently. The involvement in the change process seemed to positively influence their development and commitment to work. The findings emphasize a shift from individual focus on “resistance to change”, to a holistic focus on “preparation to change”. An integrated view on structural, relational, and individual factors entails a better understanding of the change process as a phenomena, and might give a key to a better understanding of work motivation and satisfaction.

The success of a change is valorized by a new state, and whether it will occur depends on several influential factors: environment, management, knowledge, the will to change, resistance to change, entrepreneurial spirit, motivation, risk. Managing change and making the right decisions is much easier when the path ahead of the manager is known. In contingencies, such as the global pandemic, Covid 19, banks' readiness to respond to challenges and manage change that threatens to overcome them is evident, which is the subject of this research. The aim of the research is to show the importance of banks in the course of starting to reorganize themselves and manage changes in a way that will enable them to survive in the market. For those banks that were not ready for changes, new business opportunities and customer satisfaction were lost, and employees were inefficient.

Drawing on conservation of resources theory, this study highlights why and when job security may decrease resistance to change during the organizational change process. Data were collected from 23 subsidiaries in a large manufacturing group enterprise based in a coastal city in eastern China. A three-wave design was used to mirror the different stages in the change process, valid data were received from 469 employees and 86 supervisors. Results showed that job security was negatively related to resistance to change, and this effect was mediated through affective commitment to change. We also found that procedural justice plays a moderating role in the relationship between job security and affective commitment to change and that environmental uncertainty also moderates the relationship between affective commitment to change and resistance to change. This study is quite timely and would have the potential to benefit the practice of change management in organizations.

This research examines whether relationships between change resistance and its consequences and antecedents strengthen or weaken over time during an extended duration of organizational change. In 40 health care clinics undergoing a 3-year period of significant organizational changes, we found that resistance to change had increasingly negative relationships over time with two important consequences: employees’ commitment to the organization and perceptions of organizational effectiveness. That these relationships became stronger (rather than weaker) over time suggests festering effects of resistance to change. We also found that over time supportive leadership was increasingly impactful in reducing change resistance. A major implication of this research for practice is that it is important for change agents to address employee resistance because, left unchecked, it can fester and increasingly inflict harm. Also, engaging in supportive leader behaviors can be particularly useful in ameliorating resistance to change at later stages of a change initiative.

The pilot intervention project at Leros PIKPA asylum was resisted at all levels of its implementation. Resistance ranged from implicit and passive to explicit and hostile. It took the form of strong rejective attitudes, defensiveness, and repressed emotions of guilt, shame and fear. It was apparent in efforts to delay, obstruct or reverse the progress of the project and undermine the work of intervention team members. It was evident in the interactions of the intervention team with all parties involved in implementing the project: medical professionals and welfare services, the state and local administrations, the central and local administrations of PIKPA staff, the local community, and the asylum residents' families and relatives. It is argued that this resistance to change is due to the interplay of cultural/attitudinal, psychodynamic and socio-economic factors that are not unique to Leros or Greece. The analysis of the psychosocial processes involved in resistance to changing the Leros PIKPA asylum may offer insights to the deinstitutionalisation of custodial settings in general.
