This article proposes a reconceptualization of organizational change through the lens of the paradoxical approach, which posits stability and change not as opposing realities but as interdependent and mutually constitutive dimensions. In contrast to classical models grounded in a binary-choice logic, this perspective favors an "and–and" logic that encourages the recognition, acceptance, and management of paradoxical tensions as sources of learning, innovation, and sustainable performance. From this standpoint, change management entails identifying the duality between stability and change, analyzing the ensuing tensions, highlighting their complementarities, and cultivating organizational ambidexterity in order to sustainably articulate the exploitation of acquired competencies with the exploration of new opportunities.
