Juegos Trabajo Trabajar | Change Management – CAVE Dwellers

juegos A professional acquaintance shared the expression “CAVE Dwellers” with me. CAVE means “Colleagues Against Virtually Everything.” Of course, CAVE Dwellers do not include those who rationally and respectfully oppose a particular change.

trabajo Viewing Compliance as Opportunity

The smart response to government regulations is to go beyond the norms everyone else follows.

Of course, it’s helpful if an organization can anticipate and shape the rules. This is why consumer participation is necessary, so leaders may stay abreast of customers’ issues and environmental impact.

For the initiators have the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institutions and merely lukewarm defenders in those who would gain by the new one.”

My experience suggests that the dynamics of a successful change effort follow a stretched out “S” curve. Picture time on the horizontal axis and cumulative progress toward change on the vertical axis.

Change starts slow in the “can’t be done stage,” accelerates in the “now we see how to do it stage,” and slows in the “we’re still against everything stage.” The last stage is dominated by the few remaining CAVE Dwellers.

When the change is successfully accomplished, almost everyone claims “I was for this from the beginning” and a few of these go on to say “and it was my idea.” Meanwhile, a small group of change agents are already working on the next major change fully aware that a new group of CAVE Dwellers are ready to come at them You can be published without charge.
