Design Thinking Seattle: Designing for Personal Change

9. Immunity to Change Worksheet What is ONE thing I’d like to change or improve on? What I’m doing that goes against that change: My hidden competing commitments: My big assumptions: Adapted from: “How to Overcome Immunity to Change” by Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey. http//:catalyz.io Refine my workshop planning process Trying to squeeze in too much information Underestimate how much time I’ll need Trying to share ALL context/case studies at once Committed to offering value to all Committed to not looking underprepared Committed to maintaining “expert” persona If I don’t please all, I’ve failed More tools = more value That one final model might make or break my presentation

10. What are your Competing Commitments?

11. SMART Experiments • Safe (many experiments will involve a certain amount of risk, but don’t devise a test in which the end result could get you fired or badly hurt) • Modest (start with a small test and work your way up) • Actionable (make the test one you can undertake, not just think about) • Research-based (you’re gathering information here, not trying to prove a point, or immediately trying to change a behavior) • An effective Test of your assumption (one targeted toward gaining better insight into the accuracy of your beliefs and how they do or do not serve you) -Lisa Lahey and Robert Kagan, Immunity to Change
