This chapter aims to explore the development of Motivational Interviewing (MI) as a coaching approach to deliver organizational change. We begin by laying out the challenges organizations face when trying to implement organizational change and motivating employees to participate. Afterward, we introduce the communication approach of Motivational Interviewing as a change management tool and discuss how its key components can be used to coach employees in the direction of change. We continue by explaining concrete social contexts in which the application of Motivational Interviewing is particularly valuable for both leaders and employees affected by an organizational change. Finally, with respect to the introduction of Motivational Interviewing to organizations, we discuss how the training and assessment of Motivational Interviewing should be designed to serve good quality standards. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
