I watched this in A level business studies and have just shown it to my University class, this is so helpful for discussing change!
This was a great illustration of resistance to change. It's so important to understand this for those working in any organization where change may occur. Cheers!
Hi is there any vacancy in your organisation
Love this one! Used it in a workshop at a student leadership conference.
Great video! Today we need a nationwide change in breaking the back of injustice.
this is amazing it actually made more sense than anything i've read
Very clear and a good guide....thanks!!
wow. This was great!
Great!
well done
When one can learn how to let go of all resistance completely then there is nothing left to resist. You get your power back with no resistance.
SUPER
I agree ^^
Its definitely possible. When I produced Bikini Calculus it became one of the Top 100 Viral videos of all time before CZcams even existed. The combination of humor and learning made people think more about the topic.
The data I gathered from that experiment helped me create a formula for making videos that go viral.
Great video, thanks :)
@alnocive Good point. I just had a look at the United Breaks Guitar's video you favorited. That's viral...
Trouble is, we TOC folks have never been noted for our sense of humor. It is there, but well hidden, and sometimes (in my own case) slightly atrophied from lack of use.
However, we do have the POOGI (Process Of Ongoing Improvement). We'll get this humor thing figured out eventually...
Very true video :\
It's so obvious I can talk a person into changing their mind about change simply by coming up with weirder excesses then their weird idea.
Change isn't a Individual Concept,but only a group theory
Good job. Nice explanaton and structure.
4:15 good diagram (and point about seeing things from the other persons point of view)
What prompts us to fear a lack of change
There is beneficial change and there is destructive change. This simple fact is never talked about at "Change Management" seminars. Im not very good at coping with destructive change. I tend to fight against it because I feel justice is more important. But hey---that's just me.
Awesome logic though ;)
The irony of this video is that of the two having the discussion, the one promoting change was the only one who conceded and agreed to consider change at the end (adjusting his approach to how to present the idea of change to others). While the other, who tried to rationalize he did not object to change, never truly conceded on any of the points, thus proving the claims of the other.
I do get this quite a lot, but there's a huge issue that this video had failed to acknowledge. Right and Wrong, True and False, Positive and Negative (They're all the same thing).
People who resist changes that will make things better for the majority or the entire project are often thinking only of themselves (This video has pointed out this part), and are personally benefiting from the negative impositions against others (Taking things from other people for personal gain). Why else would someone resist making things better for the majority unless they personally stand to lose something?
If your happiness relies on another's demise, then you are the negative influence that needs to be changed, hence why you resist said change.
BTW this entire premise only works on changes that benefit the wider majority like human rights, social care, equality etc.
Actually, you defeat your own argument early on. People resist change because they don't or can't know the outcome. They can't see the positive (or negative) of the change and just stick with the familiar. As a general rule, changes require effort. So the initial premise is at least mostly correct. People resist change unless they are sure the change will be a net positive for themselves personally.
It should also be noted that "I am comfortable in my current situation" can also be used as a "good reason" to resist just about any change.
I present all pluses & negatives and they agree that is it is much better but they still don't do it.
Frequent responses:
"It's too good to be true." No amount or type of proof will convince them.And they continue to complain they have a problem.
"Great, let's do it!" Then they never do it and just stop taking your calls.
I often find they refuse to change until it is too late then the opportunity is gone.
thanks it cover my chapter i dont need to read it.. haha
Video gives interesting ideas that sound good on paper. However, there is one thing the video fails to recognize. Even if a change is said to be thoroughly beneficial with few obstacles, if the person hurts the other person's ego (ex. doesn't hear the other person's side emphatically), they will resist change. The same principle applies when people argue on the internet, and it seems no one really gives in to the other person.
Understand that people are not always logical but are fundamentally emotional creatures.
No habla inglez LOOOL
Change is uncomfortable, because we like old habits hehe. Old habits are comfortable because they lead us everyday. If there is no habital leadership there is discomfort for quite obvious reasons.
We must work to make comfort.
We must learn how to let go of resisting change completely and there will be nothing left to resist.
How can we explain to our team that change is for the best and not just an added task to them?
Maybe providing them the cost and benefit of change and let them convince/decide for themselves?
Nice ideas, but it is hard to see how big a pod of money is and alligators usually comes as a herd which bite you quickly.
What do M and P mean?
Great video...until the swearing. Can't use this for a leadership training now. :(
Use it anyway. Teach leaders how to gracefully handle expletive :D
Can i use this in class?
Richard Rene Bunalos I don’t see why you couldn’t as long as you don’t present it as your own ...
This video has 200,000 views, that is pretty good. I posted a video around the same time, it now has nearly 1.7 million views. It also is teaching a serious topic but the video is loaded with humor and other aspects from my formula for making video that go viral. Another educational video I posted has very little humor but is doubling in views since when I posted it (exponential / viral growth)
How can i apply this to myself though? and is it even possible? if not this was a waste of time.
sweethunnykiss Could you let go of holding onto fear. Try this and see what happens.
The problem with that is that if i knew how to let go of that fear i would have done it by now..The times Ive sorta embraced change is because i had no choice but to do it..I have gotten better at this though.
Hi my fellow Educhage followers, good luck with your 30' survey which will be more then 30' this time :( So listen well to this 'balony' :P See ya in class
Why people resist change?.
Who won the $1000 ??
People resist change. Basically, they want everything solved and something in the end. After this they may think of the same.
Your statement can be easily challenged. Why do people get married, have kids, change jobs, live in a different country ...? They all embrace change and get into much more challenges that they need to solve... quite contrary to what you claim!
@@GMG-xd6ze They don't embrace change. That's not change because that's a decision taken by them. Any decision taken by me is not a change.
Afraid to conform to other peoples conception of what is good or bad? You're afraid of change!
I would rather acknowledge someone's perception of a situation, and retain the right to decided whether or not they are wrong.
Alligators will bite my ass off?
pullshit! Either you claim the montain or you are fired
For this video to become viral, it lacks one of the key ingredients: emotion - be it humour, or any other call to human feelings that's imbedded in videos that count in the million views. Lately I've been wondering whether it's actually possible to teach people by simultaneously entertaining them - that would be a major breakthrough.
An obnoxious video. What if the purpose of the change is not for an individual's self-gain? What if we need employees (for instance) to change for the company? Many people ARE resistive to change because a comfortable mediocrity is more important to them than the hard work involved in making the company "the best". This video proposes that people who are resistive to change are either a.) not offered a big enough pot of gold 2.) not offered a cruisy lifestyle or c.) not being punished by enough pointy crocs. Punishment and reward might be "obvious" but its certainly not the solution to enouraging most people to develop internal motivation to change.
I get your point; but the "pot of gold" and "lifestyle" are metaphors. And you don't actually have to punish people, that was also a metaphor. The "pot of gold" may be empowerment and autonomy in the workplace. The "punishment" or negative impact may be working in an environment that is micro managed. It sounds like you are interested in motivation, if you are keen for more info see "intrinsic motivation" or "self determinate motivation"
I don't think it was obnoxious, I think it was communicated in a way that almost anyone can understand, even a child for example.......
Everything is for self-gain. You define gain as material, that's not the point. Without preference you can not act, which is why this is a tool.
I think the big thing to take away from this video (Which it doesn't talk about) is that this change model only works for a single person, not a group. To find all the negatives for each person and then change them all into positives would be impossible. But finding the Negatives for one person then working to diminish those negatives with the positive will help that one person change.
This video is too simplistic for its own good... It is too laboratory!
a caveman -.-
Baloney- the Brown guy is resisting change in addition to being an incredible pain in the ass.
can't tell who was more annoying
What prompts us to fear a lack of change
t brown We use fear as a protection method. When we can let go of all the fear connected with change there will be no fear of change.
