S3 EP7: Leading Change with These 5 Types of People

<p>Why are there five different kinds of cheese on my plate? In this new episode of the Get Your New View podcast, Kim Congleton and I, the New View Strategies co-owners, engage in an informative and eye-opening discussion on identifying the different types of people in your organization and how they react to change management.</p> <p>Essential points covered in this episode:<br /> <br /> ✔️ The pioneers are the people that always mbrace new stuff. They are called early adopters, the ones that are at the front of the line. They're ready to ride that new roller coaster no matter where and how fast it goes. These people are on the bleeding edge of technology like they're always kind of pushing it.</p> <p>✔️ The Yes people always want to get on board and support what needs to be done.</p> <p>✔️ The followers are those who jump on board after seeing the first two groups going forward.</p> <p>✔️ The skeptics are the ones who don't see how a new program or process is going to work.</p> <p>✔️ The C.A.V.E. People stand for Citizens Against Virtually Everything. They believe that change is difficult or our processes are too complex. Seemingly, no system will ever work in the history of the world for them.</p> <p>✔️ It is critical to figure out your mix of these five types of people, each one requires a different kind of soft skill to articulate the benefits of change in whatever project you're working on and get them to work together as a team with your business.</p> <p>✔️ Write down the five different types and put the names of your people in those columns. Examine what makes up your group, assess how that's going to affect your project and help them get past their fear of change.</p> <p>About Kerry Peters & New View Strategies:<br /> <br /> Kerry Peters is the CEO of New View Strategies, a company known for solving mission-critical business problems and a straight-talking, experiential approach to training and process improvement for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics NAV.
