In life and business, there are two eternal truths:

1. There is no growth without change.
2. Change is hard.

Change is a natural part of our lives...now and forever more. So why is it so difficult?

People resist change because they are afraid of the “unknown.” Fear creates anxiety and mentally paralyzes people. Fear can be defined as:

Fantasized
Experiences
Appearing
Real

When people don’t know what to expect, they automatically imagine the worst. Human nature tends to cling (sometimes desperately) to the familiar, even when the “familiar” is painful or ineffective.

As companies grow, consolidate, reorganize, downsize, or simply evolve over time, changes can be dramatic on both management and employees. To effectively manage change, it is important to understand it and have a clear strategy for transition.

Whether your organization is going through a management change, organizational change, or a cultural change, Worthington Consulting can help you:

• Understand the dynamics of change
• Manage the transition
• Communicate and “market” the change
• Turn anxiety into excitement
