- Summary:
-
The conflict surrounding the administrator's attitude toward change arises from the paradoxical positions that change is inherently good and necessary to avoid stagnation and, at the same time, the individual resists it unless he perceives a gain from the change. The propositions are equally true and can be reconciled, or at least understood, and thus handled more effectively than, in the recent past, through an analysis of why administrators resist change. There is an examination of the fundamental factors from which resistance stems, including the basic needs and the sources of motivation, the role of perception, the role of communication, the role of participation, and the powerful influences of culture. Finally, there is a discussion of positive administrative attitudes toward change and some suggestions for achieving a moving equilibrium. (Author/JMF)
