Sorry to shout.
What about those stakeholders that really do RESIST?
Granted this does and will happen. I have never seen a situation where that resistance did not make sense (once I dug a little deeper). Clarity here- from the stakeholders perspective.
It can come from previous bad experiences.
It can come from politics and ownership.
It most certainly comes from the way the organization rewards-based on operation rather than change. It can come from a comfort level that will be soon uncomfortable.
It can come from the status quo change approach that expects resistance and cheerleads urgency.
It can be from a person that is always that way (talk to them first they have valuable insight).
I will raise cackles and say that any show stopping resistance to change is a function of bad change management.
OK your turn to shout…
