Organizations often encourage their employees to challenge the status quo toward improved operations and better use of resources. Many leaders agree that change is necessary for the survival of the organization. Employees, on the other hand, tend to resist change and maintain their comfort zone. Under the COVID era, organizations, leaders, and employees find the change to be crucial for survival. Organizational change – related to the pandemic is now accepted by most and embraced. Pre COVID, people resisted change for a variety of reasons. Job security, fear of failure, and organizational politics have created a culture of uncertainty and misunderstanding. Once the change is implemented and accepted, employees resist turning back. During the early period of the pandemic, the lack of accurate information and assumptions encouraged resistance to organizational change. The devastating cost of COVID, its impact on the economy, and media coverage have emphasized the critical need for an immediate change. Internal and external actions and events urged businesses to respond. Accurate predictions of these events lead to accurate decision-making and consequently to accurate organizational change. The lack of accurate information under COVID leads to poor decision-making and uncertainty.
