APPLICATION OF INFLUENCE
RESISTANCE
6-18. Diagnosis of the nature of the relationship and cause of opposition is a leader’s first response to resistance. Leaders should consider the nature of the relationship and degree of good will. If a negative rapport exists, resistance may show a lack of trust and need additional effort to establish a positive relationship. If a positive relationship exists, then resistance may reflect different interests or perceived pressure on well-being or autonomy. Resistance may stem from perceived threats associated with possible reduction in personal freedoms. This reaction occurs in instances when heavy pressure is applied and it can strengthen resistance to influence and more generally to any requests from the same source.
6-19. Leaders need to ensure all parties focus on a common understanding. Overt acknowledgement of resistance can help reduce it. Leaders increase receptivity to messages and build support for achieving goals by interrupting the other party’s focus on resistance. Refocusing on intended positive outcomes may sway negative mindsets and consume some of the energy fueling resistance.
