Why are Employees Reluctant for Organizational Change

Why Are Employees Reluctant For

Organizational Change

It is vital for leaders & change-makers to understand why employees resist change in the workplace.

Understanding why employees are reluctant to a change will help your organization execute change successfully.

There are various factors that can cause employees to resist change in the workplace.

Here are the factors that instigate your workforce against organizational change.

Organizational stakeholders will resist change to protect the interests of a group, team friends, & colleagues.

It is normal for employees to resist change to protect their co-workers.

This could be pure because they sympathize with their friends because of the change that has been forced on them.

Managers too will resist change to protect their workgroups or friends.

Our attitude towards change is partly influenced by the way we have experienced a change in the past.

If an employee has handled change badly, then he has good reasons for rebelling against it.

Moreover, how employee’s families reacted to change earlier is going to affect the way they view change.

People accustomed to the same values and ethics may find it difficult to appreciate the diversity of today’s workforce.

Employees already in their comfort zone, work with the managers they get along with & have predictable routines.

They know this support system will back them up during challenging times.

Changing the organizational structures may shake their confidence in their support system.

They may worry about working in a completely different environment where there will be no one to support them.

Organizations must develop a high degree of trust & each employee must be treated with dignity & respect.

When the organization takes care of the need of its employees, then there will be less resistance to change.
