CHANGE INITIATIVE AT GMCT By (Name) Course Title Instructor Institution Date Change Initiatives at GMCT Introduction Change is often inevitable and bound to occur whether individuals like or not. The statement conforms to narratives that most organizations carry around in the face of influencing change initiatives meant to set up a new culture trigger a desirable performance or initiate new structures. As much as this can be a daily talk the experience of Erik Peterson is totally different when it comes to change initiatives. Jenkins handed him the offer and explained the situation at Green Mountain System. Jenkins pointed out serious start-up problems that made GMCT to be highly exposed. However the company insists on pushing the agenda of making GMCT profitable as well as highly attractive. As such this paper seeks to pave the way for identification and analysis of key issues noted at GMCT. In doing so helps in facilitating smooth transitions and on-job training thereby avoiding irrelevant stoppages. Conclusion Change initiatives are always critical and are subject to organizational or societal resistance. As such the discussion has analyzed the situation at GMCT through the tenets of resistance to change. It has further introduced the problem at hand which is related to poor work relations and culture. Finally the discussion has evaluated the alternatives and recommended on picking on a combination of two alternatives which will help Peterson to run his campaign of making GMCT a better company.
