Reasons for Resistance to Change • When the purpose is not made clear. • When the participants are not involved in the planning. • When the appeal is based on personal reasons. • When the habit patterns of the work group are ignored. • When there is poor communication regarding a change. • When there is fear of failure. • When excessive work pressure is involved. • When the cost is too high, or the reward for making the change is seen as inadequate. • When the present situation seems satisfactory. • When there is lack of respect and trust in the change initiator.
