I took a long time for me to realize how hard most people resist change.
You can explain the need for change, point out the advantages, explain the dire consequences of not changing...etc etc etc.
Funny thing is the people will rationally agree, but then as if they are contolled by some odd force, they will stay in the old mode.
Best example I can think of is Sears, K-Mart and Walmart. Sears was the retail leader 50 years ago and had the money and management to be a big box giant, but they refused and K-mart passed them. Then K-Mart got stuck in a blue-light rut, and Wal-mart put them into bankruptcy. Walmart did not do anything that Sears or Kmart could not have done, except for the resistence to change.
People that lead change are few and far between, and usually not the leader in the field.
Most people do not make change...it happens to them.
