Abstract

Business dynamics aimed to urge the organization to adapt in order to parlay their competitive advantage. By this, change attempts often inevitable as an effort to keep functioning on the dynamic condition. However, change in an organization is not easy, mainly when it deals with a human within the structure. This research aims to untangle the individual factor, which forms their attitude toward change. By this, the study determines two-variable such self-efficacy and employee’s trust in a leader as a predictor of the employee attitudes toward change. Through the sample of 50 employees from a company which facing a change in business process, it was found that employees’ self-efficacy and trust in leader positively related with the positive attitude toward change. Otherwise, the self-efficacy and trust in leader negatively influence the negative attitude toward change. Through the result, managers might gain insight that gaining trust in the executives and gaining employees’ trust within their ability is imperative to acquire a positive attitude towards change.
