Sometimes we meet change (at work, home, the fruit market, anywhere) with resistance.  I googled to see if I resisted change more because I was “old” (as is the case).  I was amazed to find out from an article written by people in Switzerland (albeit just one paper) that older adults are actually less resistant to change in the workplace.  So that was really fun trivia to know.

I also am happy to say that I am not the only blogger in the world who makes typos, grammatical errors and doesn’t find the time to correct them either. So here is a summary statement of what I find about change, and noted that the bulk of what google fed me related to managing change in the workplace, for the most part which addressed “before – change” strategies helped the most at maintaining calm.

For me, change requires much effort to overcome.

silence does not equal consent
change happens
change is not always good
change brings chaos
change brings order
no change = no growth
