Individual and Group Change

From the Paper:

"Individuals and groups change and adapt to new ideas and suggestions more often than they realize. Change is more easily accepted when the individual or a group is able to feel the tangible benefits that change brings to their lives. Any change that may be required to achieve the desired objectives should be clear; the reasons for the change should not be intangible and incomprehensive. The nature and duration of the change process also impacts how change is accepted. Both groups and individuals accept change more willingly when it is gradual and positive effects of the change process is observed after every small action."
