    Managers must be prepared to manage challenges rather than solutions as changes in the workplace require three levels of change skills: flexibility to react to disruptions, efficiency improvement to make continuous improvements, and adaptability to seize new opportunities. While change can renew energy and challenge employees, it can also cause fatigue, apathy and irritability which can negatively impact decision-making, trust, and honesty within an organization. Forces reshaping organizations include globalization, new technologies, demands on processes, and emerging structures.
