The high rate of failure in organisational change plans has attracted the attention of many researchers towards identifying and developing factors which influence organisational change success. There is a clear and growing evidence that the role of leaders in process of organisational change has a significant effect on success, and their actions and behaviours directly influence the actions that enable change in the workplace. There is no agreement in the existing literature on aspects of leadership which are essential for success of change. The present study tends to find out the actions taken by organisational leaders to implement the change plans successfully. Data analysis uses content analysis strategy and MAXQDA software. Findings indicate that the actions taken by leaders for successful implementation of change plans in the organisation are changed in two organisational and human dimensions and involve 15 categories.
