Effective change management can result in greater productivity, higher work life quality and improved readiness for future changes. Most HR professionals are regularly being asked for developing attitudes and personal skills for change implementation as technical understanding of applying the tools for managing change. This article will outline the challenges faced by Human Resource managers in change implementation. The well-known theories and literature will also be discussed to share light on the importance and change management for HR. Also, recommendations and suggestion will be provided for improving change management process within an organizational context. Keywords: Change Management, Human Resource Management
