Frequent and ongoing changes in organisations that are instigated by external factors can be a significant obstacle, but they can also spark transformations in the sustainability of the business model, unveiling fresh prospects in terms of technology or operations. The inevitable part of each company’s existence is the capability to adapt to the changes and use it to strengthen its competitiveness. Due to the increasing relevance of change management, it is necessary to analyse and accumulate the existing literature on this topic. The objective of the study is to identify the trends of impact and influence of scientific sources on the topic of change management. The research involved two tasks: to analyse the performance of activities in the scientific sources of change management and to create and analyse scientific networks in order to determine the impact and influence of publications. To understand the deeper approach of the publications in the scientific field of change management, the two main bibliometric analysis methods were performed: performance analysis and science mapping. It included the selection of the Scopus database, filtering scientific sources by the main keyword “change management” in the fields of business, management and accounting, and the use of bibliometric indicators. The results showed that the topic of change management started to become popular around 2000, and the most productive source is the Journal of Organisational Change Management. The general performance of the authors and publications was identified; furthermore, the impact and influence of the publications were determined. As can be seen from the research results, the change management topic is studied worldwide by scientists and business representatives.
