Abstract

Planned organizational change has been viewed from a variety of conceptual perspectives, and a plethora of variables that impact the change process have been proposed. However, few empirical studies have investigated the relationships thought to exist among change process variables. Drawing from questionnaire-based data obtained from managers involved in the implementation of change, we evaluate three plausible change model configurations using multivariate methods. Findings from the study support a dynamic change process configuration over a direct effects model. Results, discussion, implications and direction for further research are offered.
