1.

Google
In the early 2000s, Google was already dominating over the internet as it had developed tools
like Google Maps and Gmail. But Google has grown to be immensely diverse.

The organization started working on a variety of projects, including human longevity, smart
transportation, wearable technologies, smart homes, and more. Everything was connected to
some extent, however, there were some gaps.

Google was becoming difficult to manage. Its leadership decided that disassembling the
entire organization was the best way to avoid serious difficulties in the future. They divided
Google into several companies, all of which are now owned by Alphabet, a new holding
company.

When Alphabet was first announced, Larry Page said that the restructuring would allow
employees to focus more efficiently and enthusiastically on their specific mission while
remaining unconcerned about Google as a whole.

This means that each Alphabet company is now responsible for its costs and revenues.
Increased responsibility, on the other hand, may increase the importance of invention. In the
end, Page’s long-term vision for Google was the driving force for his purpose of introducing
a change management campaign for the company’s benefit.

2. Microsoft
The internal organizational structure of Microsoft was experiencing enormous problems.
When new CEO Satya Nadella took control, he immediately began restructuring this massive
corporation.

Even after extraordinary success of Windows and Office, Microsoft struggled to keep up with
the competition in global market with companies like Google which expanded to dominate
the search and software businesses.

But internal politics and toxic environment restricted innovation and increased the company’s
reliance on Windows and Office.

According to Satya Nadella, who became CEO in February 2014 Microsoft’s took drastic
steps and restructured the organization. He shared a common vision and goal for all of
employees that helped to create a common sense of purpose and meaning to work.
 3. Amazon
Amazon’s innovations have contributed to its enormous success, making it an excellent case
study for change management.

Since its establishment, Amazon has led the way in a wide range of disciplines and industries.
These accomplishments are particularly impressive considering that Amazon started as an
online bookstore.

The leadership at Amazon believe that those who reject organizational change face the
danger of falling behind. They keep innovating new ways of doing things and that was their
secret for success.

Amazon’s distinguishing feature has always been its readiness to change. What started as an
online bookstore has evolved into a multi-industry powerhouse.
The reasons behind Amazon success is that it’s vision of customer centric. Jeff Bezos believe
in customer centric approach rather than profit centric approach.

Today 70% of online customers shop only from Amazon and the it is countinously expanding
in Europe and other parts of the world.

In 2019 197 million visitors used Amazon application just in one month and made a revenue
of 87 Billon USD in Q4 2019.

4. Toyota

The firm was struggling against a tiny market, little demand, limited manufacturing space,
high inventory expenses, and, most importantly, a lot of waste. This was recognized by
Taiichi Ohno, who began to establish the just-in-time (JIT) concept.

The JIT manufacturing method uses resources only when they are required. As a result,
supplies were kept low, transportation was streamlined to cut down on wasted time and
money, and assembly lines were adjusted to remove any needless costs.

As a result, Toyota factories had to:

 Change their layout to cut down on needless transportation distances.

 Reduce human interference by automating the production system.
 To ensure quality and on-time delivery.
 Provide enough training to their employees for them to embrace change in their procedures.
This strategy helped Toyota to successfully navigate the post-World War II crisis and grow
into the world-class company it is today.
 5. Netflix
Netflix is a game-changing service that allows consumers to view their favorite movies
whenever and wherever they want.

The use of Netflix started in 1997 when it allowed the users a monthly subscription for
watching their desired movies. They were charged on monthly basis and movies were
delivered to their homes.

Later in 2007, Netflix started streaming and this feature eliminated the need for the users to
wait for DVDs to arrive through the mail.

Netflix was successful because customers can watch all the content online without having to
wait for so long.

Netflix was able to survive a drop in memberships and stock by embracing

the change and offering what others was not. Now it has more than 167 million customers.

6. Samsung
Samsung has grown from a weak manufacturing firm that depended on low-cost advantages
to a globally recognized brand with luxury and durable products.

This happened in 1993 when a new management team took over. What emerges from the
Samsung leadership model is that strategic management, along with visionary leadership
for innovation, is the key to success.

Samsung faced following challenges:

1. The competition challenge is the first challenge to mention. The Chinese low-cost phones that
offered comparable technologies to Samsung’s are the most noteworthy competitors. It must
be recognized that customers choose things that are less priced. These items were marketed
until people understood that cheap is expensive since China products had a much shorter life
expectancy than Samsung’s trustworthy products.
2. Second, the issue of Korea’s economy gaining strength and making its currency strong
typically made Korea’s products more costly. As a result, Samsung’s products became more
expensive, and its sales began to decline.
3. The third reason is that Samsung’s Galaxy S6, which was supposed to be its main high-end
product, failed to meet expectations, resulting in lower-income than expected from the
project’s expenditure.
Despite these obstacles, the firm remained important in the market, even emerging as the
strongest. It was because of the change management model that the company implemented.
7. Domino’s Pizza
In 2008, Domino’s was in trouble and it was hard at that time to save its brand reputation and
remain relevant in the market. But the company implemented a successful change.

After seeing that increasing transactions were being performed online, some key players
pushed the leaders to focus on the online ordering experience.

At the time, this move set them apart from other pizza delivery businesses. The brand
embraced new technology to match the opportunity.

By using the custom operating system, Domino’s was able to use the consumer data.

This benefited the company in keeping low transaction costs and also providing information
about clients. Then, there is also a case of brand loyalty and introducing new deals for
keeping the sales high.

The company is still embracing change by implementing new and latest technologies that will
help it to flourish in the future.

8. Nokia
Nokia was already a global success when smartphones reached the market, with over half of
the market share in 2007. In only the first half of 2012, the firm has lost almost $2 billion in
operating losses.

Nokia realized it had fallen out on the smartphone revolution’s lead. After that, Nokia hired a
new CEO and embarked on a transformative path. The firm shifted its attention to network
and mapping technologies after selling its struggling mobile device division to Microsoft.

In 2008, Nokia established a Booster Program to help the company stay up with changing
consumer requirements as well as new technologies from competitors. They limited the
number of business units from nine to four, and development was reduced to only three.

As a result, Nokia’s shareholder value increased by billions, and it became a full-service

infrastructure provider. Nokia’s amazing turnaround from a near-bankrupt hardware firm to a
dominating leader in technology exemplifies how large corporations can adapt in the face of
difficulties.
