Why negative emotions derail change

Many organisations struggle to make real change. Whether consolidating a merger, becoming ‘agile’, re-engineering business processes, restructuring, introducing new IT systems, relocating premises, implementing new government policy or any other change, all too often the process is derailed by the resistance of employees.

Resistance to change is one of the most powerful drivers of human behaviour, and the key to dealing with it effectively is to understand both its physical and emotional components.
