When considering Change we need to consider the following aspects:
Control: Is the Change under our control?
(1) Under our total control and efforts,
(2) Under our leadership wih the efforts of others as well,
(3) Partial - Partially under our control and efforts.
(4) Limited influence on the change at all.
(5) No - Not under our control at all.
Benefit: Is the Change beneficial (overall)? Is the Change beneficial (personally)?
(1) Definitely yes.
(2) Probably yes, but we will have to wait and see.
(3) Probably neutral, but we will have to wait and see.
(4) Probably no, but we will have ot wait and see.
(5) Definitely no.
Means: Are the means (method, money, time, effort, etc.) used to accomplish the change appropriate?
(1) Yes
(2) unknown
(3) No, either unethical means are being use or too much is being done to accomplish too little.
Orderliness: How well is the change planned and being executed?
(1) Well planned and good execution.
(2) Some planning and good follow-through.
(3) Some planning but poor follow-through
(4) Totally haphazard or spontaneous.
Context in my whole life: each change need to be considered in the full context of your life, including other changes going on.
I will address in future posts, building off this, the fear of and dealing with change.
