Expect & Anticipate Resistance
A good idea is not always enough to overcome resistance to change A good idea is not always enough to overcome resistance to change As a change agent you must expect and anticipating resistance and where it will come from in order to avoid reactivity.

Terminal Learning Objective
Task: Apply Change Management Principles to Gunfire at Sea Case Study Condition: You are training to become an ACE with access to ICAM course handouts, readings, and spreadsheet tools and awareness of Operational Environment (OE)/Contemporary Operational Environment (COE) variables and actors Standard: with at least 80% accuracy Identify components of change and needs analysis from real world scenario. Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario.

Introduction This case introduces the technology that allowed navel gunners to be able to shoot while in motion, now known as Continuous-Aim Firing. The Ft. Hood case (discussed a couple of days ago) dealt with main battle tanks that adopted this same technology. Mr. Sims is the major player in the case. The case outlines the problems Mr. Sims faced selling a breakthrough technology to Senior Leadership. That technology now provides a competitive advantage in the battle field.

Change and Needs Analysis
Diagnosis and needs analysis Intervention Follow-up LSA 1: Identify components of change and needs analysis from real world scenario. Participants should read the case and answer the basic questions prior to coming to class session Start by reviewing the case so that all are ‘on the same page’. Assign each team to one of the case questions. Discuss each of the 4 parts separately to drive the points across. The case discussion is designed to be 40 min, so allow approximately 10 minutes for each team to discuss their question with the other teams. Each Group Should Address their questions by keeping the following questions in mind. What are the forces for change? What are the forces preserving the status quo? What are the most likely sources of resistance? What are the goals to be accomplished by change? The idea is to use the material from the case as reference to drive the points for the rest of the material that follows. Ask What are the forces for change? What are the forces preserving the status quo? What are the most likely sources of resistance? What are the goals to be accomplished by change? 18

Response Q: What should Sims do now? A. Create ‘Sea of Change’ – momentum, bring others from the field to support Sims’ findings, show support that what he is doing has merit and it can work for others not only Sims. Create support from the trenches. Get leadership support ASAP. Response Q: What should Sims do now?

Response – cont. Q: What should Sims do now? A. Realize why there is no response. Identify which are the arguments. What is the downside? A. Failed to assess the situation correctly. It was obvious to him, but not to the rest. LSA1: Response – cont. Q: What should Sims do now? A: Realize why there is no response. Identify which are the arguments. What is the downside?

Sims’s Final Action Q: Was his action correct? Why? Why not? A: It was correct in principal. Though could have backfired. Did not have any other option else in case his final action failed. However, he basically failed in the change process. It was by luck that eventually it happened. LSA 1: Sims’s Final Action Q: Was his action correct? Why? Why not? A: It was correct in principal.

Exemplify entrepreneurial spirit to its ultimate: putting everything “on the line”. LSA1: Sims’s Final Action - cont. Q: Was his action correct? Why? Why not?

Learning Check Q. What are the forces for change? Q. What are the forces preserving the status quo? Q. What are the most likely sources of resistance? Q. What are the forces for change? Q. What are the forces preserving the status quo? Q. What are the most likely sources of resistance? Students should have many responses to these portions of the analysis.

Reactions to Change and Interventions
Disengagement Psychological withdrawal from change Disidentification Feeling that one’s identity is being threatened by change Disenchantment Feeling negativity or anger toward a change Disorientation Feelings of loss and confusion due to change Expression Withdrawal Sadness, worry Anger Confusion Intervention Confront, identify Explore, transfer Neutralize, acknowledge Explain, plan LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. These reactions describe what may be going on internally in the individuals who are dealing with change: Disengagement – withdrawing from change Disidentification - Feeling that one’s identity is beingthreatened by change Disenchantment – negativity or anger Disorientation – loss and confusion. 13

How do we identify what is going on inside a person? We can identify the expression of those feelings. (This is the “Diagnosis/needs analysis” from the diagram on slide 5). Disengagement – withdrawal (not surprisingly.) Disidentification – sadness or worry Disenchantment – anger (again, nor suprising.) Disorientation – confusion 13

Once we identify the expression we can intervene. (The “intervention” step on slide 5) Disengagement – confront, identify Disidentification – explore, transfer Disenchantment – neutralize, acknowledge Disorientation – explain, plan. 13

Applying Lewin’s Model to the Organization
Unfreeze Change Refreeze Reducing forces for status quo Developing new attitudes, values, and behaviors Reinforcing new attitudes, values, and behaviors Unfreezing Change Refreezing Involves encouraging individuals to discard old behaviors by shaking up the equilibrium state that maintains the status quo - the organization eliminates rewards for current behavior New attitudes, values, and behaviors are substituted for old ones - the organization initiates new options and explains their rationale Involves the establishment of new attitudes, values, and behaviors as the new status quo - organizational culture and formal reward systems encourage the new behaviors LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. Steps in the Change Process (Kurt Lewin’s Model) Unfreezing Individuals must be shown why the change is necessary. Implementing change The change itself is implemented. Refreezing Involves reinforcing and supporting the change so that it becomes a integral part of the system. 16

Reasons for Resistance to Change
Uncertainty Planned Change Threatened self-interests Conflicting perceptions LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. In any change situation there is 25% who are for the change, 25% who are very opposed to it and 50% whom I call the fence sitters. These are the 50% who will go whichever way they think will be the one that will ‘stick’. So, the idea is to show from the very beginning that the change is here to stay and to show some fest results for it so to win the 50%. If one responds late then the 50% could go to the opposing side, meaning that the they will be resisting the change. Feelings of personal loss

Resistance to Change It can be either Behavioral, or Systemic, or both
LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. Resistance can be It can be either Behavioral, or Systemic, or both. 11
23
Behavioral Resistance (software)
Based on Perceptions of Consequences, perceptions are negatively exaggerated Cultural Political Personal insecurity Fear of incompetence Contradiction with model of reality Violation of norms of behavior Irrelevance of expected results Lack of rewards/ incentives Loss of power Loss of influence Loss of rewards Loss of prestige Loss of funding LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. Middle management are usually the largest resistors.
24
Systemic Resistance (hardware)
Is proportional to: Conflict of strategic vs. operating work (short term vs. long term) Incapacity Incompetence Shortage of budgets Shortage of managers Shortage of functional capacity Lack of skills Lack of correct information Inability of systems structure LSA 2: Identify steps to overcoming resistance to change in a real world scenario. Not necessarily that the People can not or do not want to do it, but that the system can not do it.
