Managing change...Anticipate negative reactions:Rational - misunderstanding of details; belief that change is unnecessary, disbelief in planned change’s effectiveness, expectation of negative consequencesPersonal - fear of job loss; anxiety about future; resentment at implied criticism of performance; fear of interference from above Emotional - active and/or passive resistance to change in general; lack of involvement; apathy towards initiatives; shock; mistrust of motives behind change

Mitigation...Be sure to investigate silence thoroughly - it is rarely golden
Explain with greater clarity and detail - involve and build trust
Thank people for putting forward useful objections and criticisms - (feedback to communications hub)
Always be frank and open about any “downside”
Use your own commitment to change as an example for others
