It is individuals who strategize, prepare, and execute change, as well as those who are directly impacted by it in their daily work routines. However, there is a prevailing tendency to prioritize the quantitative and often more straightforward aspects of implementing organizational change initiatives, while disregarding the intricate ways in which these changes will affect individuals.
