“Got Resistance To Change? Then Get Strategic Thinking Business Coaching!”
By: J. Glenn Ebersole, Jr., Chief Executive of J. G. Ebersole Associates and The Renaissance Group ™
We live in a rapidly changing world and individuals, businesses and other organizations are struggling to adapt to and keep up with that rapid change. And I believe it is fair to say that the attempts to adapt to change are not working or not working very well in many cases. Why is that? The major reason is resistance to adapting to change that basically lies within individuals. So, if this is the case, what can be done? How can we convert the energy being used in resisting and convert that energy to grab the opportunities that lie within change?
One major response to the question of converting that energy is how we look at change. What is our attitude toward change? As a change agent I welcome change and as a strategic thinking business coach I work with clients to focus on finding and embracing the opportunities that come with change, rather than looking at change as a threat. So, if you have resistance to change, what can a strategic thinking business coach advise you to do? Here are eleven (11) coaching tips to help you deal with resistance to change.
1. Initiate change and anticipate resistance. Take a proactive approach to change and enlist the help of a strategic thinking business coach.
2. Communicate the rationale for change.
3. Develop a clear vision for the future with the changes.
4. Involve people to help gain their support of change.
5. Promise and promote honesty in letting people know what’s coming and what’s changing.
6. Acknowledge and beware of the “establishment,” the “system,” and the bureaucrats resistance to change.
7. Demonstrate your personal commitment to change.
8. Identify resistance to change and promote an atmosphere of openness and safety.
9. Ensure that people are provided the knowledge, skills, and the tools to deal with change.
10. Monitor and measure performance to identify and recognize top performers during the change.
11. Be a leader that demonstrates by word and deed a positive reaction to change. And be very visible in that leadership.
If you want to learn more about how to deal with change in your business or organization in a proactive manner and how a strategic thinking business coaching approach to the challenge of change, please contact Glenn Ebersole today through his website at www.businesscoach4u.com or by email at jgecoach@aol.com

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
