Change management for small business in practice

Abstract

To explore the effectiveness of change management, I tested a sample of 20 employees' resistance to change (RTC) from a small business in practice. The small business is family-owned, local to Colorado, and was established in 2008. Throughout the organization, employees are in a range of roles, with a total of 8 being a part of administrative functions and 12 in manufacturing. This study analyzes how change is managed and identifies key factors influencing small businesses' willingness to adopt new practices.
