Resistance to Change The change was not self-initiated. Routine is disrupted. Change creates fear of the unknown. Change creates fear of failure. The purpose of the change is unclear.

Resistance to Change People like to keep things the same. The rewards for change do not match the effort change requires. Negative thinking prevails. There is a lack of respect and trust in leadership. Change requires additional commitment.

How To Make Change Effectively Acts 15:1-35
