Effective leadership in times of change will consider the nature of the change (including its effect) so as to e able to choose from among a variety of strategies to overcome resistance. In the dynamic society surround, today’s organization, the question of whether change will occur is no longer relevant instead, the issue is how do managers and leaders cope with the inevitable barrage of changes that confront them daily in attempting to keep their organization viable and current. The economic transformation where in the industrial resolution brought with it new and constantly changing ways of conducting business planning implementing managing change in a fast changing environment is increasingly implementing and managing change in a past changing environment is increasingly the solution in which most organization now work.
