Antecedents of Individual Readiness for Change with the moderating effect of Behavioral Resistance to Change in the Software houses of Islamabad Pakistan

Abstract

This study seeks to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on individual readiness for change, a topic that has garnered considerable attention from both academia and the broader public over the past few decades. This is because more and more individuals want to feel that their work has value, and because positive organizational change and positive psychology research are both expanding fields. In order for employees to actively adapt themselves in response to the fast-changing environment and produce more meaningful work, this study aims to understand the sources of meaningful work. The target audience consists of software engineers (programmers and developers) employed by Pakistan's Evacuee Trust in its software companies. There is little data on this industry and this level of employees, making it an appealing study target.
