adopting implementation.

Hi Y……, and thank you for your post. You bring up a good point when you write about the resistance to change you might encounter. In every change within an organization that has been made, there is normally always someone who says “this is the way we’ve always done it, why do we have to change?”. In my experience the best way to help overcome that barrier is to show the advantages of the change, acknowledge the individual’s concerns, and show how it will positively impact their role within the organization. If it is a new safety measure that enhances safety but takes the staff more time, highlighting the benefit of decreased incidents would be one key to staff adopting implementation. What kinds of strategies have you used to counter resistance to change?
