    Common age stereotypes suggest that older employees are more resistant to change. Contrary to this stereotype, we found age to be negatively related to resistance to change in a sample of 2,981 employees from diverse companies. Furthermore, tenure and occupational status (blue collar or white collar) were identified as prominent boundary conditions for the age/resistance-to-change relationship. Finally, we were also able to establish resistance-to-change traits as a relevant mediator in the age/job performance relationship. Our empirical analyses, applying structural equation modeling, showed age to be indirectly related to three distinct measures of job performance via the intermediation of resistance to change.
