To help my coaching and consultancy clients I’ve been re-reading this great book by Lisa Laskow Lahey and Robert Kegan – ‘Immunity to Change‘.  Some fascinating insights into why it can be so difficult for us to change – we are often protecting ourselves from something that some part of our brain or history thinks could be dangerous.  The step-by-step process in Immunity to Change helps us to track down this hidden and competing goal and to find new ways of unravelling it.  After many years of helping people and organisations change this makes a lot of sense to me!  To hear more read the book or get in touch for coaching or consultancy!
