LeadWell with Jacqui

Why we are hardwired to resist change and how to overcome it


Listen Later

Change is inevitable, but why does it feel so hard? In this episode of LeadWell with Jacqui, we dive into the neuroscience behind resistance to change and why our brains are wired to see it as a threat. I break down the SCARF model, a powerful tool for leaders to navigate change while reducing fear and uncertainty.


You'll learn:

- Why we instinctively resist change (even when it benefits us)

- How the SCARF model (Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, Fairness) helps us reframe change

- Practical strategies to lead through uncertainty with confidence


Whether you're navigating a big shift or leading others through change, this episode will give you the tools to make it easier and more effective.
