ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR AND MANAGEMENT
1
Introduction
Leader of change is considered as the competence to influence and impassion others with their
personality and drive the vision. In addition to this, one of the most important elements
connected with them is developing a solid platform linked with change. In most of the cases,
leaders are considered as one of the key element for change process. Hitachi chemical Asia-
pacific Pte Ltd is actually a wholesale distributor of industrial chemical. At present Hitachi Asia-
pacific Pte Ltd is in great need of change in order to enhance their current performance which is
in decline mode (Hitachi-chem, 2019). It seems that both moral values of employees and
performance are in need of improvement.
As change leader
As a change leader, one of the most important roles in Hitachi chemical Asia-pacific Pte is to
bring awareness among the employees within the organization. It has been seen that employees
working in this organization are not in favour of change. At present employees are having a great
fear in their minds that they will not be able to learn new technology and may lose their job. As a
result of this, they are opposing this change in this organization (Georgalis et al., 2015). They
seem happen with their traditional working process but as a change leader, it is my responsibility
to make them understand that current business market is full of competition and is having
dynamic nature. In most of the cases, it has been seen that employee resistance to change
because they are not aware of the benefits of this particular change. In this situation, it is my
moral duty to educate my employees related to the benefits associated with the change (Little,
Gooty and Williams, 2016). In addition to this, it will also include how this change will help in
improving their personal as well as professional growth. After gaining their confidence related
to this change, I will go with Lewin's Change Management Model. Lewin's Change Management
Model is divided into three stages unfreezing, change and unfreezing.
First, I will go for unfreezing. In this step, I will first try to disrupt the existing work pattern
present in the organization in order to make employees ready to leave the existing work pattern
and try to adopt new work pattern (Cummings, Bridgman and Brown, 2016). In addition to this, I
will try to put more focus on the issues facing by the employees while transforming traditional
work pattern into new innovative work pattern.
Then after this, I will go for introducing change. Once, I have ready the employee about
accepting new work pattern in the organization, it is the best time to implement the change. In
this, I will offer training related to this new technology so that the fear within the employees can
be eliminated. In this training program, employees will be going through practical experience in
the form of a small workshop. This will help in boosting confidence in the employees related to
new work pattern (Hussain et al., 2018). After training section, every employee will be judged on
the base of their performance related to the setup criteria. After attaining a satisfactory outcome,
