Change is Constant – Change is Hard

We are confronted by change from the moment we are born until we take our last breathe, on a personal basis and on a professional basis.  So why are we so bad at effectively dealing with change? Why do we find it so challenging to manage change within the context of our lives and our businesses? I contend, it is mostly our fear of “WHAT IF?”.  Fear of the unknown.  We may know we need to make a change in order to stay aligned with our goals and values, but we fear the consequences of making a change may derail us, even though making no changes puts us equally at risk.

Mark Mueller-Eberstein did an excellent TedX talk that outlines how to successfully deal with and manage change.  It is an excellent video and well worth the five minutes required to watch it.  Enjoy.
