The Change Curve in business
A reliable tool to understand what people are going through.
- Stage 1: The employee will be in shock. They may need time to adjust.
- Stage 2: When the gravity of the situation settles in, workers may feel fear from what lies ahead, which may turn to anger and resentment. Clear communication and support should remain the focus at this level.
- Stage 3: When employees understand that they must adapt, they may try to bargain with management, or learn as little as possible to adapt. Don't rush employees to learn quickly or adjust fast.
- Stage 4: The learning phase may be uncomfortable for employees and could result in low energies due to low morale.
- Stage 5: People finally start to embrace the change and start building new hopes and aspirations.
