Item Influence of Employee’s Anxiety on Human Factor Dimensions and Successful Change Implementation: Evidence from Nigeria(Department of Human Resource Management, Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka., 2022) Kuforiji, A. A.; Tobi, A. A.This study investigated the moderating effects of employees’ anxiety on the relationship between human factor dimensions and the success of change implementation initiatives. The study employed a cross-sectional survey research design and administered a structured questionnaire to employees of four selected food and beverage firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. The findings showed that employees’ anxiety has a statistically insignificant moderating effect on the relationship between human factor dimensions and change implementation success. The study concluded that employees' anxiety has multifaceted effects on change implementation in organisations. It may negatively impact the success of change implementation and may have an insignificant effect on change initiatives. therefore, it is recommended that in order to enhance the success of change initiatives, employees’ anxiety should be given adequate consideration at the planning staged of the change implementation.
