Biz Group, in partnership with Podium, a leading workplace assessments company, has undertaken the project to understand the impact of Change Fatigue, and the extent to which it is real in the GCC business landscape. Our collaborative efforts have resulted in the creation of a comprehensive white paper showcasing the pioneering work undertaken by Biz Group and Podium in the realm of Change Fatigue. This white paper serves as a valuable resource for organisations seeking to understand the tangible consequences of Change Fatigue, particularly within the context of the GCC business landscape. We delve into the psychological effects of Change Fatigue, exploring how it shapes individual behaviours and ultimately influences organisational performance. Furthermore, we present practical insights to help organisations assess whether change fatigue poses a significant challenge within their own structures.
