10 Our Four Different Selves

11 Leading Change and Thinking Styles Business case for change What is the bottom line? What are the facts and logic behind the decision? What s the goal or objective of the change? Detailed and risk managed change planning What are the specifics of the change including timelines? Is this safe? Has this been done before? Are there any loose ends or risks? Link to strategy and clear descriptor of future state How is this going to affect my future? How does this fit into the big picture? Do I have freedom to influence this? How might this constrain or benefit me? Who will be impacted and how? What is the impact on me and others? What is the approach for support and ongoing communication? What are my feelings about the change and how will you engage me personally?

quickly become committed Will never accept the change.

17 Resistance to Change Security Competence Relationships Territory Inertia Lack of Trust Poor Timing others 20% 20-30% Remainder Will quickly become committed Will never accept the change. This may occur overtly and/or covertly. Will go with the flow. Their support will be passive.

18 Strategies to Get Resistors on Board Don t try and resist or argue with resistors. Expose resistance problems early ASK. Find the root cause of resistance and answer with specifics. Harness resistance use resisters to help identify flaws Get them involved. Make resistors responsible for (some) outcomes...but take care. Allow converts to be visible. N I C E Never forget to Involve Communicate Educate
