Resistance Factors in Organizational Change Management PPT


This PPT slide, part of the 190-slide Change Management - Methodology, Toolkit, and Templates PowerPoint presentation, presents a structured analysis of resistance factors encountered during organizational change, categorized into 3 main areas: Technical, Political, and Cultural. Each category outlines specific definitions and causes of resistance, along with relevant examples.

In the Technical section, the focus is on the challenges related to aligning and structuring the organization. Key issues identified include habit and inertia, which can hinder the adoption of new skills. The mention of sunk costs suggests that previous investments may create reluctance to change. A lack of skills is also highlighted, indicating that employees may not feel equipped to handle new processes or technologies.

The Political section addresses the dynamics of power and resource allocation. It notes potential threats posed by the new guard to the old guard, emphasizing the importance of relationships in navigating these changes. The imbalance of power and authority can lead to self-preservation behaviors, complicating the change process.

Culturally, the slide discusses how organizational norms and mindsets can impede progress. Selective perception may cause individuals to focus on familiar patterns, while being locked into an old mindset can prevent acceptance of new ideas. The fear of letting go of established practices is also a significant barrier.

Overall, this analysis serves as a critical tool for understanding the multifaceted nature of resistance in change management. It highlights the need for tailored strategies to address each type of resistance, ensuring a smoother transition during organizational transformations.
