The rational approach to organizational change

 c= D x  M x P > R

D = Dissatisfaction with status quo

M = Model; leaders vision of the future

P = Process; developing and implementing plan; change strategy

R = Resistance; people resisting the change

C = Amount of change

•The D x M x P is a multiplicative function. A value of 0 in one category will result in no change.

•To  increase the amount of change, leaders can increase level of  dissatisfaction, clarify vision, develop a clear plan for success, or  decrease resistance.
