Presentation
Change management and innovation are interlinked and are essential for organizations seeking to adapt to market changes and maintain their competitiveness. Change management involves the implementation of planned and structured change within an organization, while innovation refers to the introduction of something new or significantly improved in terms of products, services, or processes. Both require leadership, organizational commitment, effective communication and flexibility for change, and a well-planned strategic approach. It should also be noted that it is essential to discuss the application of the fundamentals of Change Management and Innovation; and to work on the research, analysis, and discussion of articles indexed to the Web of Science or SCOPUS so that in this way, a solid knowledge base can be established.
