Introduction

The common question that people ask is that can the organization change their working structure. Because despite many promises majority of the organization have failed to portray positive change in their working structure (Ambrosini & Bowman, 2009, pp. 29-49). The inability of bringing a positive change in a public company raises a serious question over the capabilities of the management and their role in this direction.

However, before analysing the role of manager in managing organization change it is necessary to understand the concept of organizational development, which is the process of change that has a formidable impact on organization performance structure, its employees, and other members of the company. In general, conditions organizations deliver change in their structure, in their working pattern, employees, procedures, and others.

In spite of contradictory views of theorist (Kavanagh & Ashkanasy, 2006, pp. S81-S103) extensive literature points out that managers are solely responsible for continual change that is occurring in the organization.
