I have been involved in about 50 major organisational change programs in the past 25 years. All have followed a similar path:
The status quo gets disrupted. Fear and resistance follow.
It can get worse before it gets better.
Resilience emerges.
Fear becomes faith, first with a few and then the many.
Resistance then becomes resolve.
Soon people start sharing the story of change with joy about things they once hated with a passion.
We're complex beings us humans yet within us all is a capacity to change what's normal for the common good. We can in the words of the song, "beat the unbeatable foe and reach the unreachable star."
I wrote the conceiving and achieving highly successful change initiatives manifesto to help you on your change journeys.
Be the difference you want to see in the world.
