Summary:
Every organization must embrace constant change if it wants to grow, stay competitive, and get better. Unfortunately, with change comes resistance. Why do people really resist change and what can be done about it? To answer this question, we must look beyond common assumptions like, "people just don't want to change," or "people are stubborn." In this presentation we will look at commonly overlooked and misunderstood reasons for resistance, what people are really resisting, and how to communicate and respond in ways that create the space for change to happen.

Why is this discussion so important in the context of a LeSS Organization?
In order to succeed, a LeSS adoption must have very strong coaching support:

• Organizational (executive level) coaching
• Team coaching
• Technical coaching and the importance of Scrum Master coaching function

It must also clearly understand some key differences of Internal vs External coaching (note, also, please review "Changing Your Coaching Engagement Type")
