	Firms increasingly embed organizational politics in their change management but struggle to effectively manage it. To better understand how they do so, I have built and tested a conceptual model using data from 158 small and medium-sized Polish enterprises. The results show relationships between organizational politics, change management, and organizational effectiveness. The findings extend and specify the understanding of organizational politics as a driver of organizational change success.
