Change Management. Wew! Why are people so reluctant to change!
**
Recently, a leading global online food delivery platform brought me in to address the very same issue - their finance department was facing tough challenges when inspiring other departments to adopt new processes which were ๐›๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐š๐ง๐ฒ.

The company brought me in as I am known for my persuasion and stakeholder management workshops. So let's read that sentence again and see if you can spot the fatal error in persuasion and motivation.

Yes, a large reason why people are reluctant to change is because they fail to see the "๐ฐ๐ก๐š๐ญ'๐ฌ ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฆ๐ž?". In this case study, the reason why the other departments are unwilling to adopt the new procedures is because they can see WHY the new procedures are:

a) Good for the company
b) Good for the finance department
c) Good for the customer
d) Good for regulators

But how is it GOOD FOR ME?

So, let's see how a simple recrafting, and re-ordering of the message will help inspire change, especially in colleagues who are not under your direct purview.

By adding the words SO THAT YOU, we force ourselves to see things from our colleagues' point of view, and for many people, that is the nudge required to start the positive change.

In the workshop, we went through case studies and the participants were so excited to spot, and re-draft, many of their common communication sins.
