Maintaining Or Changing Staff
After the change process has been initiated and some time has passed, it will become obvious that there are those who, for what ever reason, cannot or will not change to the new set of behaviours and values. It could be that they are long term employees who 'have always done things that way' and can see no reason to change.
Some of this can be overcome when hiring new employees. They will come to you with their own values and ethics, but they are not indoctrinated into the old culture of your organization. New employees come with the expectation of adopting the ways of their new employer. This can be an excellent way of gradually overloading the work force in favour of the new path the organization is following.
Extreme caution should be observed when trying to change the work force, if the new employees are seen to be pushing out those that do not adhere to the plan. There are legal and ethical questions to be resolved here before any extreme action is taken.
