Yes, Once I have been through a change initiative at my work place. It was change in management. Although change was good but we had a fear related to our job position and responsibilities. We didn't have any idea what will happen to our responsibilities and how the company will operate now? Is there any major change that is going to be implemented in the near future? We were amid several questions. But, finally when the process of change over and new management took their responsibility, we felt relaxed and happy because there were lot of good things as a gift from our new management. We were inspired to work hard and were also told by our management to get good rewards for our job. Our new management took some initiative to improve our skills and held monthly meetings to boost our energy level. We came to realize that change is good and it should be there to recharge our energy level.

Every single person has his unique leadership style, no two persons can be same. So in case of management, our old management has different management style and new one has a different style. Sometimes employees lack motivation and get bored with same style of management, they need change. If a new management can offer a lit bit change then what's wrong to implement it. We should welcome it. If there were no change in management then we may suggest some change to our old management that will work for the benefit of all. Afterall changes at work place is a necessity for all.
