Key Points
•
People resist change out of fear, lack of understanding or lack of trust
•
People experiencing change go through a process of transition, with identifiable stages and needs
•
In general, these needs can be met with facts, support and encouragement
•
Specific strategies for managing resistance include communicating, listening, and understanding the inevitability of resistance (and how to use it to support the change)
