Reactions to Organizational Change

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Management Intelligence, 2008, pp 160-163 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There is a wonderful prayer from the monastic office of Compline: “Be present, O merciful God, and protect us through the silent hours of this night, so that we who are fatigued by the changes and chances of this fleeting world may repose upon thy eternal changelessness.” The word change is both boring and anxiety-provoking: the former because you keep hearing it; the latter because it usually means pain of one sort or another.
