Abstract
Uses personal construct psychology and ideas about personal mythology to explore the significance of our choice of occupation, and the impact of organizational change on our core beliefs and values. Argues for a more sensitive, informed and complex response to resistance to change, and an approach to change management which considers the balance between novelty and security, which manages stability as well as change and which values past experience and individual differences. Material used in supporting staff through change is presented, and a brief case study illustrates some of these ideas in practice.
