Unfortunately most people don't know how.
Why is this a problem?
"The only constant in life is change" - Heraclitus
- Introducing new ways of working → That's change
- New goals or Kpi's set? → Change is needed to achieve them
- Tooling like JIRA or AzureDevops brought in → You guessed it, it's change
Oh and another org restructure → Say it with me?
Change.
And yet these changes are often inflicted
- Frameworks enforced
- Goals assigned
- Yet another tool introduced to learn
One of the most powerful lessons I've learned in my 12 years in the agile domain
Invite change → Don't inflict it
When you invite people to be part of change & clearly articulate why it's needed.
Then you:
- Demonstrate empathy
- Treat people like adults
- Minimise loss aversion
The result?
- Less resistance
- Greater autonomy
- You create change that lasts
- People respect and trust you more
