Abstract: The change as a form of response to the everyday challenges of the society should be achieved differently, according to its amplitude and nature. The difficult periods, such as the economic crisis, are moments that require the implementation of major changes in order to prevent, mitigate or offset the adverse effects. At the same time, these periods are not specific to the deep structural changes involving dissolution and the restructuring of systems. The following paper aims to highlight the aspects of the change management and, also, the resistance to change and present partial results of a study of four focus groups on four changes proposed and implemented in Romania throughout the 2009-2011 period, during which the European economy was strongly affected by the economic crisis.
