An employee who objects to a new practice is not always closed to change; they may not understand what they will lose or what is expected of them. This course opens up resistance for examination in terms of uncertainty, habit, identity, trust and the need for control. Instead of one-way messaging that increases defensiveness, managers can consider ways to listen to concerns, explain the rationale and identify areas where employees can make a meaningful contribution to the process. In this way, resistance can be read less as an obstacle to be suppressed and more as a signal that informs the design of change.
The Psychology of Resistance to Change
Helps you understand how uncertainty, a sense of loss and concerns about control shape the way employees react to change in the organization.

About the course
Who this course is for
Employees of organizations going through restructuring, a system migration, a merger or a change in working model, and the teams managing that process.
Why it matters
Transformation projects usually fail for human rather than technical reasons: uncertainty, lack of communication and resistance that is not managed. Preparing the people who live through the change is as decisive as the project itself.
