Transformation saturation

Last updated

In change management, transformation saturation is the threshold where an individual or organization can no longer effectively process or integrate any more change. When the capacity for tolerating disruption is exceeded, entities may exhibit maladaptation, and becomes overwhelmed, leading to exhaustion, resistance, and a decline in efficiency and performance. This may result in individual and organizational apathy, confusion, disengagement, and opposition. [1]

The rate at which transformation saturation is reached is determined by the timing of when the change begins, the pace of change, and the length and magnitude of the transformation. [2]
