dc.description.abstractThe demand of modern business required that organisations provide their employees with information and support that guarantees the acceptance of change initiatives. Therefore, the failure of management to avail employees with the right to participate and to be informed regarding the change in the organisation has been the main cause of resistance and friction between management and employees. Thus, this study sought to examine the influence of managing resistance to change on employee performance of selected textile manufacturing firms in Lagos state, Nigeria. The specific objectives were to (i) determine the influence of change communication on employee productivity; and (ii) examine the influence of employees’ participation on job satisfaction. The study made use of cross sectional survey design and a multistage sampling techniques. Data were obtained using questionnaire distributed to 365 staff from the total population of 4,115. The hypotheses drawn were tested with regression analysis. The findings from the test revealed a significant and positive effect of change communication on employees’ productivity (R2 = 0.748, P-value ≤ 0.05) and that employees participation had a significant and positive effect on Employees’ job satisfaction (R2 = 0.738, P-value ≤ 0.05). The study therefore, concludes that a well-managed resistance to change positively and significantly affect employees’ performance. The study recommends that managers should pay serious attention to the management of employee resistance to change, with effective and efficient communication as well as entrench organisational democracy through employees’ participation and involvement.
