Abstract

Change is inevitable—it’s in our experience wherever we turn. One area, however, where most people do not want to experience change is in the work place. Whether the change is beneficial or not, those who are subjected to a change in the workplace will almost without fail resist a change to their status quo. Managers have normally come to accept this and just plough ahead, coercing their subordinates into accepting the change. With the advent of Dr Daniela Bradutanu’s new book “Resistance to Change”, there is another way—a way of cooperation between managers and employees.
