To others, change is something that seems to threaten their very survival. Below are Smith's guidelines along with the reviewer's comments on their application to Cooperative Extension. The quotations are Smith's. Focus on performance. People do not change because someone tells them they should.
Few people change for the sake of change.
They change when they can see that their actions will make a difference to their well being and to that of the organization. Not every performance challenge requires team action.
