Logical Reasoning Question 2
Question; Directions (106 - 109); Study the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
Organizational change is the result of internal and external sources encouraging a firm to shift its routines, structure, and systems.

Resistance is considered a product of social constructionism and is something that is constantly redefined throughout the process of behavioral change amongst employees. One of the many key topics of ‘change management’ is resistance and any type of resistance is required in accomplishing transformation, whether incremental or radical. Although, statistics over the years dictate that only around 30% of organizational change projects are successful due to confined opposition from employees. The remaining 70% fail to encapsulate change and this primarily relates back to the opposition of employees. Humans are known to be creatures of habit.
