Too much complexity, too much uncertainty, too much ambiguity (inconsistency, ambiguity). And too little control. What do you need to be able to handle the loss of control without stopping?

Win them over. Fascinate them. Or make them come to realize that the change makes sense because the current state is not tenable. For this, one must first &#8220;unfreeze&#8221;, i.e. defrost. Just as no one throws a frozen dish directly into the pan and then turns to the maximum flame, it is just as wrong to simply enforce a process and expect those affected to rejoice over the accomplished facts. The participants must need to understand why the situation has to be changed.<\/p>\n<p>Once the condition has thawed, the <em>movement<\/em> can begin. Now it is possible to change. Here new concepts can be tried out, new attitudes can be taken. As a rule, the system performance drops slightly during this period. Once the desired changes have been implemented, the state must be frozen again. This re-freezing process is important in order to convert change into lasting solutions. The process is now complete and stability is created for the innovations to reach their potential.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6012&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][vc_column_text]From the point of view of those affected, the change process can be divided into<em> 7 phases<\/em>:[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6016&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1550584559698{margin-top: 45px !important;}&#8221;]If change processes are to be successful, four success factors must be taken into account:<\/p>\n<p>1.
