Question

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a change agent that would cause resistance to change?

a. lack of tact
b. failure to legitimize change
c. respecting existing cultural traditions
d. autocratic leadership style

Answer 1

respecting existing cultural traditions

Step-by-step explanation:

Resistance to change is being unwilling to change to new circumstances. It can be very disruptive especially in a work environment. Employees can show resistance to change in such situations where the leadership is autocratic, lack of tact, and failure to legitimize change.

A situation whereby cultural traditions in existence are being respected, it would be a more favorable work condition. Therefore option c is the answer.
