OCTOBER 2020HR TECH OUTLOOK6Change is a constant in every organization, and many professionals are accustomed to dealing with it. However, the ambiguity associated with change management can make it harder for people to navigate the process. Now, managing through change is another complicated process. Whether it's a merger and acquisition or a change in the company's core leadership, significant changes can lead to directional shifts, personnel turnover, and other challenges for businesses. When HR takes a leadership role during periods of change, it's possible to gracefully navigate the challenges that come with such a situation ­ achieving both the organization's goals and ensuring your team feels confident about the company's future direction.For most organizations, the last decade has been fraught with restructurings, process enhancements, mergers, acquisitions, and layoffs to achieve revenue growth and increased profitability. Today, millions of managers who are asked to implement some changes in their organizations ­ a decision with which they may not even agree, are unknowingly fuelling the fire of employees' resistance to such changes. Human resource experts said this could be avoided if only managers could apply a practical change management approach from the very beginning. Similarly, change can threaten the organizational culture of the workplace. Knowing employees have both a professional and personal stake in changes helps managers understand resistance to change.We hope that our readers can find their way forward with great agility and a thorough understanding of what Change Management offers.Let us know your thoughts!Change is the new permanent, but no change is permanent!Hanna WilsonManaging Editoreditor@hrtechoutlook.comManaging EditorHanna WilsonEditorial StaffSalesAaron PierceAva Garcia Philo VazRussell ThomasVisualizersChris LynnCalvin JamesEditor's NoteShirley Jacobsshirley@hrtechoutlook.comCopyright © 2020 ValleyMedia, Inc.
