21 Reasons for Resistance to Change When the purpose is not made clear. When the participants are not involved in the planning. When the appeal is based on personal reasons. When the habit patterns of the work group are ignored. When there is poor communication regarding a change. When there is fear of failure. When excessive work pressure is involved. When the cost is too high, or the reward for making the change is seen as inadequate. When the present situation seems satisfactory. When there is lack of respect and trust in the change initiator. Michael Fullan, ASCD 1990
