There are seven major methods to overcoming resistance to change: $(1)$ develop a positive trust climate for change, $(2)$ plan the change, $(3)$ clearly state why the change is needed and how it will affect employees, $(4)$ create a win$-$win situation, $(5)$ involve employees, $(6)$ provide support and evaluation, and $(7)$ create urgency. Think of a situation where you would like to implement a major change with a group of individuals you work with. How would you utilize one or more of these methods to overcome resistance to your change?
