Summary/Abstract: Contemporary markets require companies to steadily transform, and be able to predict upcoming changes and adapt to them. The need to adapt is a challenge both for managers and ordinary employees, who may feel resistance to change. The paper discusses how strengthening employee subjectivity, and their participation, can promote acceptance of change thanks to the increased involvement and responsibility of being on a team. Any group is governed by certain stages of group development and by tendencies that affect consistency and efficiency. By stressing the importance of the worker’s subjectivity, participative management reinforces his involvement, increases the sense of control and reduces the fear of change. It creates a culture at the organisation in which team members can help each other to cope with the need to change.
