  A Study Of Factors Influencing Organisational Changes: A River Island Study (2008) Ref: busman0035 The
study assesses employees’ perceptions on factors influencing
organisational
changes and the internal and external factors causing these changes. A
study
conducted on the retail store River Island, located in a major UK city
was
undertaken to gain a more in-depth study on organisational changes
within a
specific retail store, where the literature to date serves to fail. The
study
researches literature on key internal and external factors influencing
organisational changes, giving the reader a better understanding on the
reasons
for organisational changes and its effects upon organisational
structures.
Literature examined consists of various studies on organisational
changes in a
range of industries. An investigation was carried out at the River
Island store
to establish employee perceptions on organisational changes within
their
working environment and the effects it has had on them. This
investigation is
undertaken via interviews of managers and frontline employees to give a
variety
of views and opinions. Findings of the study are discussed and
comparisons
made. Limitations and further recommendations for research are also
examined.
