1. What is change management?
Change management is a structured approach to shifting transitioning individuals’ teams and organizations from a current state to a desired future state. It is a process aimed at helping employees to accept and embrace change in their current business environment. Change Management is a systematic approach to dealing with change it can be an organizational and on the individual level. Change Management has at least three aspects adopting to change and controlling change and effecting change.
