Resistance to Change
Psychologist William McDougall (1908)
“People are prepared to maintain a custom often at great cost of effort or discomfort, long after it serves any useful end"
American Social Psychologist Kurt Lewin (1947)
Argued that social norms become “vested
interests” that we become highly protective of.

A3 Problem Solving Tool
• A3 refers to a paper size that is
roughly equivalent to an 11 x 17
sheet of paper
• The template involves several
well defined steps
• The power is not in the paper, but
the thought process

• Approximately 30 minutes
• Boards are custom and
updated every few months
• Often have visitors to hold
us accountable and share
our learnings

resource...you can’t get any more of it!
• Don’t overcomplicate things...show people how
their work impacts the overall organization and
remain focused on why your organization exists
Structures
• Select and train for teamwork
• Shared accountability and rewards
• Shared conflict resolution
• Boundary spanner roles
• Team meetings
• Shared protocols
• Shared information systems
Relational Coordination
• Frequent
• Timely
• Accurate
• Problem Solving Communication
• Shared Goals
• Shared Knowledge
• Mutual Respect
Performance Outcomes
• Quality and Safety
• Efficiency and Finance
• Client Engagement
• Worker Engagement
• Learning and Innovation
