Body Life is about the way we treat one another, how we let each other know they matter, and working together toward the common good.
True Body Life is Critical to Change Management Because It Paves the Way for Change.
Change can be difficult but an environment where true body life exists paves the way for navigating through change and coming out better on the other side. We can better embrace change because we are primarily concerned with what is for the good of the whole, not pushing an individual’s personal agenda.
True Body Life is Critical to Change Because It Puts People First.
Because we care for one another, we will stop to think about the effects of change on people. When we do that, we can often head off problems change might bring. We can be sensitive to the feelings of others. Change might still be inevitable but people know that their concerns matter. They know you are not moving forward without thinking about them. As a result they will be more likely to accept the change even if it is not their preference.
You’ll find this content in the Steering the Church Toward Body Life Leadership Guide along with some thoughts about how people’s perceptions, even those that are unfounded, can affect the way change is received.
