ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Detailed explanation-1: -The metaphor of white-water rapids for change is much more powerful. It means that the process of change will be rough and need to be adjusted quickly. This metaphor is useful when big changes are needed, like when a business needs to quickly adapt to changes in the market or technology.

Detailed explanation-2: -Planning would be simple because everyday would be the same, because the environment would be free from uncertainty and there would be no need to adapt. This metaphor is consistent with the idea of uncertainty and dynamic environments.

Detailed explanation-3: -The calm waters metaphor suggests that change is an occasional disruption in the normal flow events and can be planned and managed as it happens. In the white-water rapids metaphor change is ongoing, and managing it is a continual process. Organizational change is any alteration of people, structure, or technology.

Detailed explanation-4: -A small raft on a raging river: The white-water rapids metaphor envisions organizational change as a small raft on turbulent river, where currents are rough and the next turn could bring a smooth stretch of water or a sudden drop down a waterfall. Thus, change is chaotic and unpredictable.
