Conclusion & RecommendationConclusion
Arulastan recognizes the need for change as evident from the many change initiatives. But it is also apparent that Arulastan faces much negative responses in the form of resistance, vulnerability to change fatigue, identity loss and conflicting purposes and values.
Recommendation
1. Efforts towards developing a shared vision, guiding alliances through socialization and communication for all stakeholders.2. Creating short term wins as opposed to fixating on the end goals and developing metrics to evaluate the short-term goals.3. This transformational change needs to be flexible, agile and responsive in anticipation of possible strategic flux and subsequent demise (Prepared to adopt an emergent approach)
