Effects of Organisational Change Caused by The Covid-19 Pandemic Case Study: Logitrans

Abstract

This research delves into the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on organisational change within the logistics group Logitrans. Grounded in a comprehensive literature review, the study positions itself within a broader context of organisational changes during crises, employing qualitative research methods. Through semi-structured interviews with eight directors in the Logitrans COVID crisis unit, on-site observations, and document analysis, the study aims for a nuanced understanding of the organisational changes.Results highlight Logitrans’ achievement of financial stability and operational improvements through organisational transformation. The adept incorporation of remote work skills, fostering efficient task completion contributed to enhanced performance and heightened employee satisfaction. Beyond financial gains, the study emphasizes community building, trust, and elevated morale.Ultimately, Logitrans not only weathered the crisis but emerged resilient and prepared for future challenges. This study not only provides insights into Logitrans’ experience but also extracts generalizable lessons applicable to businesses post-COVID-19. By contextualizing findings within a broader landscape of pandemic-induced organisational changes, the study aims to offer actionable insights for effective navigation in post-crisis environments.
