Allow
people to express their fears and concerns. Conduct a meeting for just
that. Approach people one on one.
Share
an example of when you resisted a change because of fear, identify what
was the source of fear and how you overcame your fear. Be sure to share
the success of the change.
Identify
where the resistance in your organization is coming from.
Brainstorm
with your team ways to alleviate some of the fear and reduce the
resistance.
If
people feel they cannot accept the change, offer to help them find another
team or place of employment.
Share
the positive outcomes of the changes and explain why the change is
important.
Remember
that a team involved in the process of change is likely to feel like they
have influence on the process and some control over their situation. This
alleviates much fear around change. |
