Change is inevitable and can cause fear of the unknown. But it doesn't have to—we can learn to master change and adapt to it quickly. These 5 tips will help you successfully cope with changes at work.
Debby Hopkins, Chief Innovation Officer at Citi and CEO of Citi Ventures, has made a career out of championing innovation. Here's here advice for driving change at work.
Connect: Professional Women’s Network is online community with more than 350,000 members that discusses issues relevant to women and their success. The free LinkedIn group powered by Citi also features videos interviews with influential businesswomen, live Q&As with experts and slideshows with career advice. To learn more and join the conversation in the largest women's group on LinkedIn, visit http://www.linkedin.com//womenconnect.
Why can’t people just get with the program? They question, they challenge, they complain… and it’s all perfectly predictable and normal.
Transition is the emotional process people go through when adapting to a change in their world. It doesn’t matter if the change is positive, like having a new baby or getting promoted. People still have to let go of some parts of their life (perhaps the luxury of sleeping late!) and learn new things (how to change a diaper while half asleep).
The process is predictable, according to the work seminal done by organizational thinker and consultant William Bridges. Leaders who understand what people typically experience during change can put measures into place to help accelerate the transition process.

The Uncomfortable Truth of Why Teams FailNeil Patel
What would you do if someone took credit for all your work, would you confront him or her risking a confrontation or not say anything at all, which would build up resentment?
It’s a surprising fact the reason why most new businesses fail is not because of product/market fit, finances or using the wrong technology, it’s because the team members do not get on with each other.
Is there a simple way to explain to someone what change management is and why it is essential, not optional? Prosci’s Five Tenets of Change Management helps you tell a simple and compelling story about why change management is necessary for projects to deliver results and achieve objectives.

Unrelenting Change and What to Do About ItPeopleFirm
In today's do-it-now world, change is unrelenting. So, what steps do leaders need to take to make sure their people are ready, willing, and able to meet that change and thrive?
Making change happen - being ahead of the curve - RICS ArticleDonnie MacNicol

"The Start-up of You: Adapt, Take Risks, Grow Your Network, and Transform Your Career" - by Reid Hoffman and Bes Casnocha
is a brilliant guide for both career professionals and (aspiring) entrepreneurs.
The book is a real page turner replete with street-smart wisdom on how to realize your potential by being flexible, taking chances, building and growing a network and making your own destiny.
In short - the book is all about being an entrepreneur of your own career.
Sharing you my notes from the book which really struct a chord with me. Hope you'd enjoy this!
Leading Change
Change is accelerating in our business world, and those who can embrace and drive it will be the winners. Globalization, restructuring, and workforce diversity are changing the way business is done, and leaders often must adapt at warp speed. With constant change, we have to do more with less, faster, cheaper and better. Doing our best is no longer enough. Leaders must frequently face changes in the business environment that seem to require miracles to overcome. The reality is that business is often a game of setting seemingly impossible challenges and making progress on these challenges. Resistance to change is widespread, and people leading change must often do so against a tide of resistance and predictions of failure. Fear of failure and disappointment are frequently the motivation for this approach. Often these well-intentioned people call their attitudes "realistic" or "practical." Unfortunately, people who resist new ideas, and change in general, ignore the influence of their own attitudes and beliefs on their “reality”. Successful change leaders must understand how people react to change, and be ready and able to lead and support their teams in successfully navigating required changes. These “change agents” must learn to personally deal with the pressure of constant change, and even welcome it, learning to surf the waves of change rather than being dragged under the waves. This module will provide you with an understanding of the change process, the role of resistance, and your role in leading change, so that you and your people can embrace change as a doorway to new possibilities.

When change is in the air, look for ways to
take action, be proactive, and remain
actively engaged as you transition into a
new situation.
8. “People who are proactive don’t sit
around waiting for answers to appear,
they stand up, put one foot in front of
the other, and find the answers. They
don’t wait for someone to hand them
an instruction manual and a box of
tools; they’re resourceful.”

Open communication between team

critical in times of change. Don’t let rumors
lead you astray—ask for clear direction or
clarification when something is unclear.

stress in the workplace.

Although it is not always easy, when
negative thoughts seep into the workplace,
they can be detrimental to your point of
view much later down the road.
16. Chrissy Scivicque of Forbes.com explains:
“Let go of the feelings you have
associated with the old way of doing
things. Comfort can be more emotional
than rational. Remember that you’re
endlessly adaptable and that growth
almost always comes with discomfort.”
