Pet hate, right there.

One of the great statements of change resistance is “yes, but the problem is…”. Every time someone puts up an idea for change, out come the hurdles, typically led by one of two phrases – either “yes, but the problem is …” or the other old chestnut “but that’s not the way we do things around here”.

I am all for people challenging new ideas and proposals for change but there is a difference between challenging and building roadblocks.
