Each organizational change has specific reasons why it will need to be implemented in the organizations. Look at the following 32 possible forces of organizational changes, or how they are also called drivers of organizational change.

For more than six years I was working on my master’s thesis about resistance to organizational change. In the last five years, I have spent large of my time in research of organizational changes, especially drivers of organizational change, sources or forces that will cause organizational changes in organizations.

Some experts talk about sources, some of them about forces, and some use the word drivers. But, each of these words represents the thing that will cause an organizational change in an organization.

Here is a list of 32 possible change drivers that I come after several years of researching more than 200 organizational science literature.

I will not go in the description of each of this forces, which will be part of some other posts here on entrepreneurship in a box.

Before I share this list, I would like to mention that this is still in a working version. Because I work on my Ph.D., and this is also part of my main thesis, and currently I’m implementing practical research about this list in small and medium-sized business, means that the list will be changed in the following months.

Let’s go with a list of possible drivers of organizational change.

1. Human resources

2. Customers

3. Changes in legislation

4. Technology development

5. Competitors

6. Key Performance Indicators

7. Business Growth

8. Globalization

9. International laws, politics, and agreements

10. Management

11. Changes in the world and domestic economy

12. Internal problems in the organization

13. Organizational structure

14. Organizational resources

15. Strategy

16. Change in government politics

17. Organizational reduction

18. Availability of capital

22. Systems and process in the organization

23. Decreasing discrimination

24. Implementation of new technology

26. Environmental protection

27. Vision, mission, and goals

28. Stakeholders

29. Unemployment rate

30. Trade unions
