Resilience

Change isn’t a straight path. There will be setbacks, resistance and moments when teams feel like giving up.

 

That’s why resilience, the ability to adapt, recover, and keep going, is one of the most critical skills in change management.

​

Resilient organizations learn from them obstacles, adjust and come back stronger. By building resilience into the change process, employees are better equipped to handle uncertainty, frustration and the inevitable bumps along the way.

​​

A few ways to incorporate Resilience into Change Management:

​

  • Normalize setbacks as part of the process. When challenges happen, frame them as learning opportunities rather than signs of defeat.

  • Train employees in adaptive thinking. Help teams develop a problem-solving mindset rather than feeling stuck when plans don’t go as expected.

  • Create psychological safety. Employees need to feel safe voicing concerns, experimenting and making mistakes without fear of backlash.

  • Recognize and celebrate persistence. Instead of just rewarding outcomes, acknowledge effort, small wins and the ability to push through difficulties.

  • Encourage flexible thinking. Teach employees and leaders to reframe problems and look for alternatives.

  • Give people tools to manage stress. Offer resources like mindfulness, energy management strategies and wellness support to help employees stay engaged.

Bend, Don't Break
