This document discusses the stages of managing change after an organizational transition. It outlines the stages as denial, bargaining, anger, blame, sadness, and acceptance. It then discusses the neutral zone stage where people reflect on how things were and envision the new purpose. During this stage, it is important to acknowledge people's value, give time to reflect without rushing the process, take time to remember the past, and celebrate successes.
