“…Dyar (2019) noted the establishment of cross-functional teams that were empowered to experiment and take risks, supported by a change management framework that emphasized flexibility, learning from failures, and celebrating successes. Establishing a "problem-solving" team dedicated to understanding how the change affects goals, deliverables, and benefits, therefore identifying and addressing inefficiencies or malfunctions, can create practical solutions (Mangla & Singh, 2024;Vaccarello et al, 2023). Implementing this measure boosts employee involvement and helps address minor issues before they escalate into significant challenges.…”

In the rapidly evolving business environment of 2024, organizational change management (OCM) leaders face unprecedented challenges driven by technological advancements, digital transformation, the integration of remote work, and a heightened focus on sustainability. This study examines the efficacy of traditional OCM models in addressing these modern complexities. Through a qualitative methodology employing an extensive literature review, the research identifies vital issues such as resistance to change, digital transformation imperatives, the shift to remote and hybrid work models, and the imperative for sustainable and ethical business practices. The study posits that while classical OCM frameworks offer foundational insights, there is a pressing need for more adaptive, inclusive, and flexible approaches to navigate the nuanced demands of the contemporary and future business landscape. Expected findings suggest the integration of agile methodologies, technology adoption, and a shift towards a culture of continuous change and employee empowerment as critical strategies for effective change management. These insights aim to guide OCM leaders in developing strategies that address the current challenges but also anticipate the dynamics of future organizational change, thus contributing to the broader discourse on evolving OCM practices in a digital and globally interconnected era.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is a selective introduction of specific underlying principles of Epictetan Stoicism in change management, aiming to mitigate resistance to change and achieve positive outcomes through redefining the perception of change by both its agents and recipients. Design/methodology/approach The applied methodology included locating, distilling and extracting selected philosophical fragments, coherent in terms of contextualisation with the field of management and paralleling their content with organisational, strategic and wider social and political objectives, to provide an interdisciplinary enriched perspective on managing resistance to change in any area. Findings The selective combination of Epictetus’ Stoic philosophy with change management literature, focusing on resistance to change, contributes as a beneficial strategic choice, multiplying the available alternatives, not only in managing resistance to change but also in a more general sense. Practical implications Selectively introducing Epictetan Stoic philosophical ideas into the behavioural response of resistance to change could clarify and improve communication to avoid crises and conflicts, as well as extend Epictetan Stoic wisdom to the wider community, beyond organisations and institutions. Although the hyper-competitive, globalised market seems to contradict the tempered Stoic philosophy, from which they radically differ, this research highlights strong points of relational relevance that could facilitate overcoming resistance to change with a much wider impact. Originality/value Epictetus’ Stoic philosophy is already widely deployed in management, but in this project, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, it is selectively cross-discussed for the first time with the theory and practice of resistance to change as a pilot intellectual platform, identifying personal perception and distinction as the primary cognitive compass in the organisational and managerial realm, so that the upcoming change projects would mitigate resistance to change.
