Organizational Change - A Remedly Prescribed in Over-dose?

Abstract

People in general want improvements, but rarely radical changes. To overcome this conservatism among employees, managers are often overselling change. During a long time there has been a frenetic enthusiasm for managers to become leaders with ‘transformational’ and charismatic capabilities. To do things right has been less important than doing the right thing. This article questions this prophetic capability of managers and also the value of change. As a phenomenon in modern society, and in modern companies change is often overestimated and overvalued. What happened to the new economy? Maybe time has come to question the leader and appreciate the manager?
