• Innovation and Change
• Innovation is important to business survival.
Organizational innovation is the ability of employees
to find different methods that improve the way that
work is performed and the organization functions.

business success, it means change, and people
naturally resist change.

innovation.

change to the way that a business or
team operates. Organizations make

implemented simply for the sake of
change.

reasons. It can be due to company growth,
cutbacks, technological changes, product changes,
changes in leadership, or HR changes. Hence, No
matter the reasons for the change, it is important
that middle managers successfully guide their
employees through the transitions. Often,
unsuccessful company changes are the result of a
poor implementation and management rather than
the change itself.
