This approach will be cost effective and may also speed up the transition process.

If managers within Alphabet Games force employees into accepting change by threatening potential job loses and no promotions if there is resistance, then staff motivation, morale and job satisfaction will decrease amongst employees. Although this approach ensures rapid change it may result in the company having a high staff turnover as
