    (Addis Ababa University, 2023-07) Teninet Tadesse; Wasihun Mohammed (PhD)
    The aim of this study was to identify the factors that influence employees' attitudes towards organizational change in the FDRE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Wang and Kebede (2020) model was used to examine the relationship between employees' attitudes towards organizational change and their reactions to it. An explanatory research design with a quantitative research approach was used. 85 respondents were selected using a systematic random sampling technique. Correlation and regression analyses were used to determine the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The research findings revealed that fear of consequence from change, self-confidence for learning and development, and perceived need for change were found to have a statistically significant relationship with employees' reactions to organizational change. On the other hand, perceived organizational support, perceived procedural justice, and trust in management were found to have no statistically significant relationship with employees' reactions to change. The study also identified several factors that influence employees' attitudes, including communication, participation, and training. Based on these findings, it is recommended that organizations invest in effective communication strategies, involve employees in decision-making processes, and provide adequate training and support during periods of change
