Industrial/Organizational Psychology A few
months ago, the upper management at a large
corporation decided they wanted to make major
changes in the organization. Leadership is
concerned that employees may be resistant to the
change, and they want to find out if there is a
change management method that would help
employees accept change more effectively and keep
employee satisfaction high. Two methods they have
considered are the ADKAR Framework and the Prosci
Change Management Methodology. The company wants
to implement a small change in two departments
before they make any major organization changes
and would like to test the methods. The
corporation uses the Devine Company to measure
employee satisfaction with an anonymous survey.
