a )   Coercive approaches quickly reduce resistance - false

 Coercive approaches to change also can increase resistance. Managers can react to resistance to change in two ways. They can treat the resistance as a problem to overcome or view it as a signal to get more information about the reasons for the resistance. Managers can use resistance to change as a tool to get needed information.
