What Happens in the Brain with Change? How To Navigate Our Instincts - Change Management Part 5

What happens in the human brain when people encounter change, and how can we use this information to improve how we deal with change? https://sacsconsult.com.au/blog/brain...

The basal ganglia handles routine tasks basically automatically, whereas it’s the prefrontal cortex that gets involved with new tasks and situations, which generally take a lot of energy.

The orbitofrontal cortex monitors threats, and creates pain or discomfort in new situations, while the amygdala manages our fight, flight and freeze response.

So how do we navigate these innate responses to change, and how can we get people enthused and engaged?
