Introduction

Change or perish – Leaders in today’s most successful organization recognize that internal changes must keep pace with what is happening in the external environment. As Jack Welch, the former long time chairman and CEO of General Electric (GE), put it, “when the rate of change outside is faster that the rate of change inside the organization, the end is near”. More and more organizations today face a dynamic and changing environment. This, in turn, is requiring these organizations to adapt. “Change or die” is the rallying cry among today’s managers worldwide.

Organizational decline occurs when organization don’t anticipate, recognize, neutralize, or adapt to the internal or external pressures that threaten their survival. In other words, decline occurs when organization don’t recognize the need for change. General Motors’ loss of market share in the automobile industry (from 50 to 28 percent) is an example of organization decline.

Change is a function of relative strength of the change forces and resistance forces that occur inside and outside the organization. Some of the change forces are nature of the workforce, technology, economic shocks, competition, social trends and world politics. Whereas the resistance forces can come from individuals in the organization and organizational resistance.

In contrast to the highly regulated and clearly defined boundaries of business in 1980s and 1990s, the new global business environment is characterized by complexity, uncertainty and turbulence. This type of random and discontinuous change requires very different management and leadership skills if the challenges it presents are to be handled innovatively and opportunistically.
