INTRODUCTIONAs we all know that change is the law of nature. There is a perennial change ineverything, since the evolution of human race and this is a reason that we are at this stage today.One has to adapt in accordance with these changes to stand out in this competitive environment.Every organisation has to frame such policies and procedures to deal with the changing needs ofthe customers (Yoder-Wise , 2014). Only by managing every aspect in suitable manner, one cancope up with this. To understand and implement the change in a better way, two companies,Asdaand Sainsbury are taken into consideration.Task 1: Managing the Impact of ChangeP1 Impact of change on an organisation's strategy and operationsFor surviving in this competitive environment, one has to manage all the affairs of thecompany to operate in an organised way. To accomplish the same, it has to plan in a proper way.According to the needs of customers, the firm has to make its strategy to deal with the changes.In this era, everyone wants to look different from others. With the increasing wealth, theywish to have something new each and every time. Those organisations which can provide thecustomers with the same can lead today. There are many firms of the same product. Manycompetitors enter or leave the market at a time. The managers have to track them in a proper way to beat them. They must know theproducts actually liked by the customers to increase the production of the same quality. The sameis done by the company Sainsbury, which is the largest supermarket chain. Today the customerswish to have the market where they can buy all kinds of household products. To provide themwith this, the company has widened its product ranges from grocery to the tin-packed goods.Sainsbury Pharmacy and Sainsbury Entertainment have also came into existence. These are thepolicies to attract more and more customers and to earn more (Doppelt , 2017).Economy is also another factor according to which the company has to plan. This is tomake the products affordable for the customers. Therefore, with respect to the country economy,the company has to manage its pricing policy in the favour of customers. For the same thecompany Asda has made the policies related to energy efficiency, ethical trading, etc. In this way, we can say that the company has to make its strategy according to thechanging needs of the market to achieve the success.2
P2 Impact of internal and external drivers of change on leadership, team and individualbehaviours within an organisation.There are various external and internal drivers of change which affect the organisation.Change may be due to several factors prevailing within the organisation. These are called asinternal drivers. Advancement in technologies to innovate something new by the managers canlead to the change. If the technologies are simple and easy, the employees can easily cope upwith the same. But in case of complex technologies, the employees may feel work stress andcannot give their hundred percent. It is also necessary to train the employees for the same, whichwill lead to more investment. This will add into the price offered to the customers to havebenefits but customers will not be satisfied with the same. Due to the increase in working hours, the employee’s morale will get reduced. For this,the managers have to train them to work in doses (Fullan , 2014). Though this will lead thecompany's position to strengthen in this competition, but ultimately the employees lose theirconfidence in the company. They will try to leave the organisation. It is very important for theorganisation to retain the employees for the sack of its benefit. To deal with these issues all themembers within the organisation have to work in collaboration with each other. High wastagewithin the organisation will also lead to the managers to implement such technologies to reducethe same.External factors such as political aspects, globalisation, also affects the organisation.With a view to explore the business, the managers are putting much more emphasis on onlineservices. They are training their staff for the same. Team work is playing an important role todeliver the products on time. Staff members have to be much more attentive for the same. Theleadership has a major impact on the decision taken by the organisation. Now, the leaders should be of transformational type to consider the views of all theemployees in bringing something new to beat the competition (Emanuel, and et.al., 2015). Thisway by making healthy relationship with the employees, they will feel satisfied and can performin a better way to achieve the goal with efficiency. The competition prevailing in the market isthe major factor to bring change within the organisation. The managers have to understand the3
