| description | The study revisits past research papers on the importance of organizational change (OC) and change management (CM). Effective CM is necessary for organizations’ growth and sustainability in the competitive market.

Given these discussed conflicts, this study provides a systematic narrative review of organizational CM. In addition, it identifies the challenges faced by organizations during the implementation of change. Further, this study also highlights the suggestions for further research. To overcome CMfirms should promote communication because it bridges the gap between employees and managers. Managers should design a reward system for employees who accept the change happily in organizations. If employees view the ideal process rather than an interruption, the transition period may be smoother. This research has focused on re-examining the literature on OC.
