The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of organizational development on organizational effectiveness at Jordanian universities, mediating by resistance to change. The researchers used the descriptive analytical method to scan members’ opinions. Moreover, the researchers designed and distributed a questionnaire to Jordanian universities’ academic staff members. The study’s sample consists of (436) academic staff members. The results show that continuous development has a statistically negative significant impact on resistance to change, and individual resistance has a statistically positive significant impact on organizational resistance. Furthermore, resistance to change played a partially mediating role between organizational development and organizational effectiveness. This study subsides by filling a gap in organizational development literature in the higher education sector, in which empirical studies on the relationship between organizational development, organizational effectiveness and resistance to change have been inadequate until now. This study appears to be the first study that empirically tests the indirect relationship between organizational development and organizational effectiveness via resistance to change.

Celem niniejszego opracowania jest zbadanie wpływu rozwoju organizacyjnego na efektywność organizacyjną na jordańskich uniwersytetach, za pośrednictwem oporu wobec zmian. Badacze wykorzystali opisową metodę analityczną do skanowania opinii członków. Ponadto badacze zaprojektowali i rozesłali kwestionariusz do pracowników naukowych jordańskich uniwersytetów. Próba badania składa się z (436) pracowników naukowych. Wyniki pokazują, że ciągły rozwój ma statystycznie negatywny, istotny wpływ na odporność na zmiany, a opór indywidualny ma statystycznie pozytywny, istotny wpływ na odporność organizacyjną. Co więcej, opór wobec zmian odgrywał częściowo rolę pośredniczącą między rozwojem organizacyjnym a efektywnością organizacji. Badanie to uzupełnia lukę w literaturze na temat rozwoju organizacyjnego w sektorze szkolnictwa wyższego, w której badania empiryczne dotyczące relacji między rozwojem organizacyjnym, efektywnością organizacji i odpornością na zmiany były do tej pory niewystarczające. Niniejsze badanie wydaje się być pierwszym badaniem, które empirycznie sprawdza pośredni związek między rozwojem organizacyjnym a efektywnością organizacji poprzez odporność na zmiany.
