Abstract:

Change management literature has grown dramatically, has a significant focus on how to make change happen, and a bias toward change. Despite this, nearly 70% of all change efforts fail. There is a need to focus more attention on the notion of excessive change and its detrimental effects on organizations. This paper proposes a unit of measure and a methodology to measure and calculate the magnitude of initiatives, an audit process to quantify the effort required by all initiatives in an organization at any given moment in time and proposes organizational limits beyond which organizational performance will suffer.
