Obviously when you try to implement any idea then it will met with lot of resistance for the reasons 1. Unaware of the idea 2. Outcome not known to people 3. Internal company politics where peers think that by implementing any idea an individual will exceed them 4. How this idea is going to impact individuals and organization as a whole.
I handled this resistance in below mentioned way.
1. Having thorough knowledge of the idea 2. Doing proper due diligence 3. Implications positive and negative on individuals , company 4. Based on my due diligence prepared list of positive/negative impacts, weighed them 5. Analyzing near and long term benefits 6. Ultimate objectives to be achieved by implementing this idea. Finally after preparing a road map, start conversing with peers on one on one basis , making them understand then presenting this to larger group, taking their consent and finally presenting to Management of company.
Yes people are always afraid of new ideas. we can reduce the resistance by team meeting and communicating about their fears.
It's human nature you can't avoid that, the intensity of resistance depends on the organization overall culture, organization systems, team capability & their education level, communication system etc other than that your leadership capability & style matters a lot.
It's difficult to bring it at zero level but it can be reduced to a negligible level with certain actions like proper planning, increasing knowledge / awareness about actions and final results, identification of team or key persons motivation factor, more importantly by removing the fear factor etc
