But change can often be difficult, painful and slow.<br>This is often due to the interconnectedness of things (change one thing in a system, and it impacts others things). Thus change usually means changing everything (that\u2019s why everyone needs to be involved) and it\u2019s more than likely that you will never get complete or perfect change.<br>Change requires constant and never ending \u2018pushing\u2019 and support to ensure it stays (else the system will rapidly default back to the old patterns of behaviour).<\/a><\/p><cite>Summarised by Paul Arnold \u2013 &nbsp;Facilitator and Trainer \u2013 &#x70;&#x61;&#117;&#108;_&#x61;&#x72;&#x6e;&#111;&#108;d&#x40;&#x6d;&#x65;&#46;&#99;o&#x6d;<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the benefits of an O\u2019Reilly subscription is the wealth of knowledge you can access to read on the commute or us as an alternative to taking on Vinted clad e-Olympians in Clash Royale during down time.
