• Have you ever had an opportunity to make a change, but you chose not to take it? 
• Did you maybe respond with "What if it doesn't work?" 
• Or maybe with "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

Fear of change is subtle. It operates in your subconscious, convincing you that it's there to protect you. It will keep you safe.

Or does it?

Embracing change can help bring growth, and with that, fulfillment and ultimately success. Both for individuals, but also for organizations.

Today we are roasting marshmallows with Linda Rising, author of several books, including one called "Fearless Change: Patterns for Introducing New Ideas" and it's successor "More Fearless Change: Strategies for Making Your Ideas Happen", which can help you and your organization to bring change.

Linda is an internationally known presenter on topics related to patterns, retrospectives, influence strategies, agile development, and the change process.

With a Ph.D. from Arizona State University in the field of object-based design metrics, Linda's background includes university teaching and software development in a number of different domains. These include telecommunications, avionics, and strategic weapons industries (probably top secret).
