Introduction. Change is now a constant in most big organizations, and they universally find that workers don't always buy into change. Workers immediately go into the flight or fight mode when changes are proposed which is their antennae for threats to their welfare. Anxious workers are more difficult to get focused.
How Do Workers Become More Adaptable? Adaptability is a characteristic of Personal Development. Adaptability is a characteristic of a growth mindset in which challenge and risk are seen as paths for growth and advancement and obstacles or setbacks are viewed as expected events.
How Do You Get Workers to Adopt a Growth Mindset? Workers with a vision of how their life could be improved through their own Vision, Practices, and Habits are empowered by new behaviors. Adaptability and flexibility are necessary for growth as everything meets resistance. Relentlessness and Resilency are two powerful empowerment practices that can make workers lean into change.
Will Workers Engage in Personal Development? Personal Development can change who they are and how they show up. If they are interested in gaining more responsibility, independence, and autonomy as well as promotions, they want to develop their potential and how they show up for work. Executive Presence is a result of Personal Development and can be a great career accelerator.
Conclusion. Invite workers into a Personal Development opportunity and condition them in advance or during change to become both willing and perhaps leaders into change.
