The Hidden Cost of Resisting Change

Have you noticed how resistance to change isn't just a mindset issue, it's an energy drain? Many leaders I work with discover they're spending up to 40% of their mental and emotional resources fighting changes they ultimately can't control.

This resistance creates anxiety, decreases productivity, and prevents innovation precisely when you need it most.

Instead of resisting, what if you used your natural strengths as anchors during change?
