✦ Synopsis

Implementing organizational change projects: impediments and gaps . A `project' perspective on managing change is offered to embrace a focused range of gaps and behavioural issues which determine the success or failure of change programmes. . The argument evolves around contemporary strategic, managerial and behavioural concepts on implementing organizational change projects, and is supported by ®rst-hand empirical evidence from a sample of UK based organizations during 1996±98.

. The gaps are identi®ed as: clarity of the purpose of, and reasons for change [why]; de®nition and speci®cation of project objectives [what], and the design of project process and choice of implementation method [how].

. The impediments re¯ect the phenomena of slow learning, fast forgetting and organized resistance.
