- Abstract
Past studies have inferred an indirect relationship between Perceived Organisational Support and Resistance to Change. Making clear the "black box" between Perceived Organisational Support and Resistance to Change is crucial to predict the success of organizational change. Drawing upon organizational support theory and conservation of resources theory, this research was conducted in an attempt to offer a systematic analysis on employees' positive psychology in organizational change. The total valid sample consisted of 288 employees from Taiwanese consumer electronics manufacturing which were undergoing organizational change. The theoretical framework was analyzed by LISREL model. Results showed that Readiness for Change had negatively direct effects on Resistance to Change, and indicated that Readiness for Change mediated the relationships between Perceived Organisational Support and Resistance to Change, and Readiness for Change also mediated the relationships between Positive Psychological Capital and Resistance to Change. Finally, this study proposes managerial implications and highlights future research suggestions.
