Overcoming the Resistance That Awaits New Ideas

Description: How do you get people to say YES to a new idea or innovation? In this interactive session, Kellogg Professor David Schonthal, co-author of the Wall Street Journal Bestseller The Human Element: Overcoming the Resistance That Awaits New Ideas, highlights the frictions that operate against new ideas and innovation; describes the unexpected reasons why the ideas and initiatives people are most passionate about get rejected; and explains how to transform those frictions into important, powerful catalysts for change.

• Develop a strategy, idea or plan to initiate discussion with interprofessional team members and leadership to initiate change or creatively problem solve challenges
