Abstract: Change is a complex and difficult process, and – furthermore- it is inevitable. Managing change at a personal and organizational level requires new thinking, new patterns of change and new frameworks, and also tools that allow for a smooth, problem free implementation of the desired change. For a group or organization to change, all individuals in that group must change. Change happens at an individual level. The secret of successful change has its roots in something much simpler: how to facilitate change with only one person. To make changes in organizations, we must first understand how to produce individual change. It is important for the manager to understand all the factors at stake during a change initiative and their effect on the success of the change. The manager's ability to lead employees to change is the decisive factor in rapidly and completely adopting a change.
