A bias has set in among people that organizational transformation is bound to fail. People are afraid of change and this has resulted in a sort of pessimism with a belief on high failure rates. Business consulting giant McKinsey conducted a research to ascertain this problem. Organizations were surveyed and it was found out that less than forty percent of respondents confirmed success in the change. While this sound akin to majority failing, the same survey also mentioned that a third of respondents claimed to be somewhat successful. Only a tenth voted in favour of the change efforts being complete failures. So while change is hard, it isn’t impossible and in fact most efforts in the long run when pursued authentically tend to succeed rather than fail.
