Now I’m going to explain some risks that we

consider in our case:

✓ The second risk that we can analyze
is:

✓ Finally, the last risk that we are
going to analyze is:
“Resistance to change on the part
of workers to reach environmental
culture causing delays in goals” –
One of the most critical failures to
change is employees’ attitudes
toward change. There are many
reasons for resistance, but,
resistance is rooted in fear of the
unknown. People are biologically
wired to look for patterns and
predictability, and any uncertainty
can trigger anxiety

A response could be to educate the

employees on the value of the change to
show the benefits of implementing the
standard, communicate early and often the
changes.
Now, lets continue with my colleague
