M.B.A. / The main thrust of this research is its critical perspective on the current situation faced by corporate South Africa. This involves the deliberate attempt to make a contribution in dismantling the deeply rooted problems of the past. The research has specifically focused on the transformation of all organisations in the country. The study then chooses to argue that for corporate South Africa to undergo a smooth planned change and overcome resistance to transformation, it has to go via the cultural diversity route. There is a need to prioritise and find new solutions. There is much work to be done. The major motivation behind the study was the very perception that South Africa is a multicultural country having all members aspiring to have their voices heard. The study then further argues that it will be best timing to activate economic transformation simultaneously with political transformation with particular emphasis on corporate South Africa. Hence the need to develop an integrated and formalised methodology for managing corporate planned change in its entirety. The development of the model is thus intended to provide management with a holistic methodology to internalise, think, plan and in the process of its implementation, incorporate all members of the organisation in decision making. This work has attempted through conceptual literature, to create an outcome that will influence other disciplines in different spheres, generate constructive arguments and activate further research. The work also intends to create a new perception that South Africa be seen as doing something concrete- about its corporate impasses.
