Journal Title: Problems of Management in the 21st Century - Year 2014, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
Employee job satisfaction is pertinent and critical in the change management process of contemporary organizations. The objectives of this study are to assess the extent of employee involvement in the change management processes, assess the impact of change management on employee job satisfaction and thirdly, attitude of employees after organizational change. A descriptive survey research design was employed to administer a self-designed questionnaire consisting of open and closed- ended items to one hundred and forty respondents using simple random sampling. Closed-ended items were measured on a fve-point Likert scale. Data was analysed using SPSS and presented in descriptive form. The main fndings indicate that employees’ involvement in the process was limited to provision of adequate information. It was also revealed that generally, the change had a positive impact on employees’ job satisfaction. Finally, employee attitudes after the change were found to be positive. Interestingly, respondents disagreed with the issue of high level of trust after the change process. In view of the fndings, it is recommended that management should encourage employees’ maximum participation in the process through adequate representation on change management committees.
