Resistance Issues

Resistance Issue Description

Resistance Risk (Before)

Mitigation Intervention

Resistance Risk (After)

Mitigation Intervention Rationale

Culture

There are different interpretations and a lack of consistency in processes because the organization does not effectively communicate changes.

H

Providing follow-up knowledge checks to ensure that information was received and comprehended appropriately is a mitigation strategy that aims to reduce the resistance risk. This discussion board is a good place to ask questions and ensure everyone understands what has been said.

M

Providing a place for employees to ask questions and verify their comprehension will lessen their resistance to the material because it is delivered transparently, leading to acceptance, and understanding.

Psychological Learning Threat

The change is viewed as unaware of its potential psychological danger. People tend to avoid asking questions when they're afraid of being found out.

M

An open forum for questioning is a resistance-reducing mitigating measure. I worked at a company that encouraged the open forum concept. Once a quarter we had an open forum session with our management team to discuss occurrences, best practices and the projected movement of the company.

L

Employees are less likely to be frightened by asking questions if encouraged, and management develops a platform that expects queries.

Organizational Structure

The organizational structure determines the working, leadership and decision-making styles of the management as well as the overall culture of an entity. (Berggren and Carlstrom, 2011) The current situation of the free flow of knowledge is hazy. Sharing information necessitates translation and elaboration. Managers use information as a means of exerting control over their workforce.

H

To lessen the danger of resistance, the mitigation action is to encourage a self-operating team culture. Managers must be confident in their leadership position and be opened to delegating tasks to their staff. The employee must be trusted with increasing responsibility while the management remains in control thanks to the task transfer.

M

If the managers can preserve their positions without losing the respect that their position holds, their workload can be reduced as the employees grow more autonomous. Employees gain from greater self-direction because it allows them to better prepare for the opportunities ahead. As conditions change, we learn new behaviours and eliminate old ones’. (Sarma,Pearson).

Workforce Commitment

Workforce commitment is a very challenging process for most companies. (Caligiuri, 2010). Employees have a poor level of dedication to their jobs. It has been my experience that many individuals are more self-centered than the organization when it comes to career advancement. In the workplace, various learning opportunities are available primarily for the employees' personal growth.

H

There will be cross-functional opportunities to allow for personal development while also affecting the organization to reduce the likelihood of resistance. Once employees experience personal and professional development simultaneously, I believe it may further assist in the mitigation intervention.

M

Employees are more likely to accept company changes if they can see the benefits of their efforts. For many people, personal progress is a simple matter. Still, those who see the beneficial impact they have on the organization will be inspired to keep getting involved and serve a greater purpose. This task also facilitates promotion and retention within the company.

Dissemination of Knowledge

When transmitting information electronically, numerous discrepancies lead to more information being shared.

M

Knowledge must be disseminated in a variety of ways. Emails, huddles, and one-on-one meetings with supervisors should be used to distribute new information. Employees benefit from this method of knowledge transfer since they can comprehend what they hear and see.

H

Employees will be more likely to share new information with others if they have a better grasp of the material being given to them and the rationale behind the changes. As a result, personnel with experience can circulate the information and put it into practice with one another.
