One of the main reasons for the resistance to change is the fear of the consequences. We are talking about the fear of the unknown? Maybe it also, but it is a little deeper than just fear of the unknown. What are we so afraid of? Well it's mainly due to the fear of the consequences of errors.
"You can do this, and someone else has to take advantage of me if I make myself vulnerable, and the error in the East?" People are scared of colleagues and afraid of vultures middle management. They fear aggressive career-makers who want to rocket to the top of the company, leaving the bodies of their colleagues in their wake. In fact, many people seek power. Our nature is just as in the pecking order of the hen house, the alpha male and a group of gorillas hierarchy. And how can we get power? How to move to a higher level in the hierarchy? By being stronger or smarter than everyone else. Prey on the weakness of others.
Let's look at a few examples:
We see them everywhere on Saturday mornings. The smallest of the family become fanatically coaching fathers new Lionel Messi. They stand on the sidelines yelling and screaming their little "beginner" or "Star" each time, when the pride and joy did not kick the ball hard enough. "Try a little harder, come on, how is it possible?" At the moment the little boy just wants to run and hide. Does he come to just have a little fun playing soccer? Unfortunately, while you will often see a bit of a pair of football boots to hang up, on a permanent basis.Twenty years later, the little boy ends up in the workforce. Where he was raised, had a low tolerance for errors. And then he suddenly has to be open to "cure". She has a smile and, in practice, to cheer, when someone comes to tell him he has made a mistake. He is supposed to find it fantastic that all errors are logged and that they are even statistically analyzed. Not so easy ...
Another example that fits in this context is the fact that the bullying. At school, it always seems to be the bullies taunt those children who are somehow different. They focus on the attacks on the children, who somehow, one way or another, are responsible for the bullying; with the help of aggressive behavior of emotional reactions such as crying, etc. Children who indicate that it appears to be the weaker party, which are often misunderstood. A child who is completely indifferent and ignore a bully is a bully in the soon-to-be-alone and goes in search of another victim, who react to, you will be able to continue to their power play.
"Boys don't cry." Three little words, which have ensured that it would take generations before the men would dare to finally show their emotions in public.
Three examples of a common thread running through them. Each example is the desire for power and hierarchy. Strong versus weak.
In the first example, the father wants to harden his son and arm him lurking by setting very high expectations of him and proclaiming him, so to speak, the best against the enemy. "You have to be at your best and can't make mistakes." The founding fathers, that ROAR the loudest often do so because they associate with their son failures with itself. They see them as their own. In the second example, the bully is anything other than a poke of his weaknesses. He tests to see how he can influence, and when he sees that it works, he relishes his power. And, finally, the boys do not cry because it is a sign of weakness. If you make yourself vulnerable, vultures swoop in.
How can we best deal with this fear of abuse of power? And, most importantly, How to remove this fear?
By working with a solid confidence and clear communication , the fears are UNFOUNDED.
The only way to remove someone's fear is to build a solid confidence. We dare to open up and be ourselves for people completely rely on. We dare not reveal ourselves and have less difficulty to recognize and admit mistakes. Here lies one of the most important keys to the improvement of management of State aid procedures. Create an organization where people can trust each other.
As we all know, the management is an important example of this. They show their organization, that they fully support this approach. But it is not enough. Change management, you also need to explain to people what's going on, how it happens and, above all, why it should happen.Keep in mind that this communication must be given from the outset. If we can win the confidence of our citizens, we will never get a second chance. And when trust is lost, it is very difficult to get back.
