KEY TAKEAWAYS


Change is a journey that individuals go through, and it is important to understand each person's unique journey.


Resistance to change often stems from past experiences and habits that individuals are comfortable with.


Making people feel positive, safe, and supported is crucial when leading and delivering change initiatives.


Change requires breaking old habits or creating new ones, which can be challenging but necessary for progress.


Understanding where people are coming from, collectively working towards a common destination, and moving forward gradually are key aspects of successful change management.

BEST MOMENTS

"Change is not easy because we are creatures of habit. Every single day, the majority of the things that we do are habitual."

"We need to make people feel positive. We need to make people feel safe. We need to make people feel supported." 

"Everybody is on a journey. Not everybody wants to be on a journey. We may face resistance." 

"Change is a journey for everybody... Changing anything is often not like flicking a switch." 

"Mayor Angelou said, 'I'll forget what you did, I'll forget what you said, but I'll never forget how you made me feel.'"
