Dear Readers,
Thank you for coming here!
As a consultant, both external and internal, I have seen too much resistance to changes, even on a burning platform (company on the edge of going bankrupt and people on the edge of losing their jobs).
It confused me like hell why people just did not want to change even when the benefits were so obvious, both to the organization (efficiency and profit jump) and to themselves (job security, better bonus, more valuable stocks).
A recent chat with someone with 30-year experiences in this field solved my confusion.
He said “
Change also means losing something and it is hidden”.

That is so true!
When we build business cases, we look at only the benefits and investment required. But there are so many other hidden factors we do not consider.
People may lose their power....
