1 Understand the sources of resistance

Resistance to change can stem from various factors, such as fear of the unknown, loss of control, lack of trust, or attachment to the status quo. To manage resistance, you need to understand where it is coming from and empathize with the emotions and concerns of those who resist. You can do this by asking open-ended questions, listening actively, and acknowledging their feelings. By understanding the sources of resistance, you can tailor your communication and support to address them.

I've found the source of resistance can usually be boiled down to four factors. The four factors are: Understanding the Purpose of the change and explaining it in a way that those involved see their role as necessary, they can see the objectives and see the company believes in the purpose. Understanding the Mind/body connection eg how people are feeling, thinking and emoting about the change and addressing it. Understanding the Accountability of the processes and action steps needed and who will be overseeing them so it's clear And having the right Resources for the change, including options for upskilling, adding roles, tools etc. It is a simple method but quite effective for both simple and complex change.

Como líder, empieza por ti mismo. Evalúa tu propia resistencia al cambio. Trabaja primero en ti y en creer en el propósito del cambio para hacerlo extensible a los demás y contagiarlo a través del ejemplo, la coherencia y el entusiasmo.

2 Communicate the vision and benefits of change

One of the main reasons people resist change is that they do not see the purpose or value of it. As a leader, you need to communicate the vision and benefits of change clearly and convincingly, and link them to the goals and values of your team and organization. You also need to communicate the risks and costs of not changing, and how they can be mitigated or minimized. By communicating the vision and benefits of change, you can create a sense of urgency and motivation for your team to embrace it.

Necesitamos encontrarle sentido a lo que hacemos para involucrarnos y creer en ello. Conocer el propósito de lo que hacemos es fundamental para ganarle el pulso a la zona de comodidad y rutina en la que prefiere estar nuestro cerebro, en la que gasta menor energía y tiene menor incertidumbre.

3 Involve and empower your team

Another way to manage resistance to change is to involve and empower your team in the change process. You can do this by soliciting their input, feedback, and ideas, and incorporating them into the change plan. You can also delegate roles and responsibilities, and provide them with the resources and training they need to succeed. By involving and empowering your team, you can increase their ownership and commitment to the change, and reduce their fear and uncertainty.

Según mi experiencia en formación de equipos, podemos pretender que los equipos de personas se involucren con motivación si les hacemos partícipes de ello. Es más probable que cumplamos normas que nos parecen razonables o hemos contribuido a establecer; es más probable que participe en una actividad que yo he propuesto hacer. Otra propuesta es capacitar. Que la persona se sienta con recursos para afrontar el reto con éxito, que no vea el desafío demasiado grande para ella. Destacar sus fortalezas y capacitar con recursos de diversa índole nos acerca al éxito.

4 Celebrate and reward progress

Change can be stressful and challenging, and it may take time to see the results. As a leader, you need to celebrate and reward the progress and achievements of your team along the way, and recognize their efforts and contributions. You can do this by setting milestones and indicators, and tracking and sharing the outcomes and impacts of the change. You can also provide positive feedback, recognition, and incentives, and create a culture of learning and improvement. By celebrating and rewarding progress, you can boost the morale and confidence of your team, and sustain their enthusiasm and engagement.

5 Anticipate and address obstacles

Even with the best intentions and efforts, you may encounter obstacles and setbacks in the change process. As a leader, you need to anticipate and address these challenges proactively, and help your team overcome them. You can do this by identifying and analyzing the potential risks and barriers, and developing contingency plans and solutions. You can also provide support and guidance, and encourage your team to be flexible and adaptable. By anticipating and addressing obstacles, you can prevent or reduce the negative effects of change, and enhance your team's resilience and performance.

6 Model and inspire the change

Finally, one of the most effective ways to manage resistance to change as a leader is to model and inspire the change yourself. You can do this by demonstrating the behaviors and attitudes that you expect from your team, and showing your passion and conviction for the change. You can also share your own stories and experiences of change, and how you overcame your own resistance and challenges. By modeling and inspiring the change, you can influence and persuade your team to follow your lead, and create a positive and supportive environment for change.

The resistance to change I hear from team members, behind the proverbial closed door (or zoom), is due to (a feeling of) leadership hypocrisy. With that in mind, to inspire change you must “be the change you wish to see in the world.” This may mean making “the change” first, but often it means changing that thing your team knows you need to change. The good news and reality is, even if it doesn’t inspire others to change, progress will have been made in the right direction.
