What do you find more compelling when asked to jump on board with change – an email with your assigned change implementation tasks and due dates, or a one-on-one conversation with your boss to understand the personal implications of the impending change?
Resistance to change - we have all experienced it. From kids, to customers, to co-workers. When change happens something ends before something new begins. People most often consider what they are going to lose due to change before they consider what they will gain. It's important to look at the change from other people's perspectives. What will they perceive they are losing?
With the amount of change happening in today’s workplaces, gaining commitment to change is key to business success.
