Change the Climate Before Changing the Weather
summary
Workplaces resist change but a concrete three‑step method shows how to move them: start with yourself, use active listening to map others’ self‑interest, then introduce one small routine change that scales from 2.5% to 80% adoption. Example: deploy a gender‑inclusive Slack bot first in one team, then cross‑team, watching pushback turn into gradual normalization as allies grow and the small technical change becomes the new default.
