WHEN ALL IS WELL
HOW TO PREVENT
A THREAT RESPONSE
People are recognized for their standing and position
People experience familiar patterns that lead to safe, predictable
outcomes
People make decisions about important matters that affect them
People are treated as colleagues and as part of the group; they know
that they’re among friends
People see that the organization treats everyone with fairness
and respect
Identify and draw on people’s areas of expertise
Encourage people to master new skills
Reward acquisition of new skills
Share plans and goals
Explain what will stay the same amidst change
Break complex tasks into smaller, manageable tasks
Reduce ambiguity whenever possible
Give people the latitude to make their own choices
Allow staff to organize their own work and set their own hours
Set a goal and allow people the authority to choose how to
accomplish it
Design projects that involve collaboration
Connect in person rather than by email
Favor inclusion over exclusion whenever it makes sense
Avoid situations that bring negative, public attention to individuals
Allocate rewards and privileges based on clear, objective criteria
Spread information quickly, clearly, and widely
Share the rationale behind tough decisions
Adapted from “Managing with the Brain in Mind” in strategy + business and other resources by David Rock (http://www.davidrock.net/).

Have you ever felt that your life was in immediate danger? You remember feeling a burst of adrenaline as your heart race, and you moved into action or froze in your tracks.
Research shows that other situations, in which there is no physical danger, can trigger a similar response. This “fight, flight, or freeze” response decreases the ability to plan, make rational decisions,
and perceive subtle social and cognitive signals. To avoid stress reactions from interfering with your next organization change, pay attention to the five areas of threat identified by David Rock.
