Resistance to Change - A New Perspective: A Textbook for Managers Who Plan to Implement a Change

The intention for this book is to present the resistance to change phenomenon from a new perspective.

The term resistance is complex and very often misinterpreted.

Change leaders should adapt their perspectives on this subject and try to see resistance from a positive angle as well.

By just changing the prospect of analyzing it, managers could experience a greater success in implementing new changes and effectively attract more employees onto their side.

Instead of trying to eliminate or suppress employees' resistance, managers should rather use their reactions in a positive framework.

Resistance may be useful as feedback and therefore, managers can use it to improve and refine the organizational change process.
