Any change effort that does not give them voice or participation
denies them choices and opportunities, which is most likely to
diminish the quality of life.
To summarize before change can be executed effectively,
employee commitment needs to be created, consent for change
needs to be generated and support for change mobilised.
THREE COMMON MISTAKES:
There are three common mistakes that managers tend to make in
getting the buy in for change.
Assuming that great arguments would win hearts and minds.
Assuming that persistence without compromising would sell the
idea.
Assuming that persuading is a one time effort.

The book by Malcolm Glad well, The Tipping Point looks at why
major changes happen suddenly and unexpectedly in society.
How do people get influenced? What persuades them to change
their mind sets and behavior?
This book identifies particular personality types who are creators
and initiators of change.
Glad well calls them connectors, maven and salesmen.
CONNECTORS: are people who have a large number of social
connections.
They are individuals in organizations who seem to know everyone.
They are well networked individuals who have contacts with
peoples from a variety of background.
Large number of acquaintances not necessarily their close friends
such as weak ties friendly yet casual social connections.
Connectors yield enormous influence because of their contacts this
makes them crucial in change management.
If connectors are convinced about change effort and are
enthusiastic about it, they will spread message of change to all
their contacts.

For example the reason why the news media often get
acknowledged experts to present their opinions on a topic.
Implications for managing change:
Employees are likely to be influenced by manager who is
perceived to be competent in his/her job.
Develop technical and professional competence in your job so that
others around you see you as being competent.
6. Scarcity: this means when things are available less readily, they
become more valuable.
This makes us want more of what we can have less of.
People tend to value things that are relatively in short supply.
The implications is that we are more influenced by our expected
losses than our expected gains.
Managers are encouraged to communicate how the change would
make things better for the employees and the organization.
Identify employees the opportunities they are likely to miss if the
organization does not undergo change.
Cialdini principles are observed mental models that most
individuals employ in day to day situations.

6. How much power and influence does each party have over
the negotiation process and its outcomes?
Can you negotiate directly with other parties boss?
Can you set deadlines for agreement?
Another way to exert power is by making credible threats?
Can you convey other party that not supporting change
may diminish their interests?
7. What is the right thing to do in the negotiation?
Need to be both practical and ethical.
Ethical aspects involve honesty, equity, force, impact on
others and conflict of interest.
It helps to redefine values and principles.
