organizational change
Systemic workplace shift
Organizational change refers to significant shifts in how a company or institution operates—its structure, processes, culture, or strategy.
The term covers everything from mergers and layoffs to new technology adoption and leadership transitions.
The organizational change was poorly communicated, leaving employees anxious.
Change management describes deliberate efforts to guide people through such transitions.
