ABSTRACT: This research is aimed at evaluating the extent to which change
management impacts on employee’s performance in the Nigerian Electricity
Regulatory Commission Sector. The study adopted research design based on data
collected through questionnaire survey distributed to staff of the Commission.
Questionnaires were distributed electronically to 80 employees and 60 completed questionnaires were returned at a response
rate of 75%. Non-probability sampling techniques were used. Using descriptive and
inferential statistics methods, this study found that a positive relationship
existed between various changes in the Commission, the attitude of employees to
work and their general performance. To the best knowledge of the researcher,
few empirical studies have been conducted to determine how change management
has impacted on employee performance in the Nigerian public sector;
specifically, in the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission. This study
aims to fill that gap.
