Abstract

The study investigates the influence of leaders’ behavior on the effective implementation of organizational change. ‘The study also examines ‘the mediating role of followers’ response to change and the moderating role of leaders’ behavior on followers’ dispositional resistance to change in the change process.’ Data was collected from 238 academic staff working in higher education institutions in the Gambia and analyzed with the help of SmartPLS 4.1.0.0 using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).’ The results indicate a positive relationship between leaders’ behavior and change effectiveness. Furthermore, followers’ response to change mediates the relationship between leaders’ behavior and change effectiveness. ‘However, the results do not provide support for the moderating role of leaders’ behavior on the relationship between dispositional resistance to change’ and followers’ response to change.’ The article is concluded with implications and directions for future research.
