Nate Booth on the 6 Approaches to Change

Welcoming guests to the first annual RIMS ERM Conference, author and consultant Nate Booth delivered a keynote speech on that touched on, among other things, the six approaches to change, which are:

  1. Avoidance approach
  2. Apathetic approach
  3. Resistant approach
  4. Reactive approach
  5. Anticipatory approach
  6. Creative approach

He stressed that the most successful companies use the creative approach and also react quickly to change, anticipate change and create change — using Apple and Zappos as examples. Booth also reminded everyone of two important beliefs that most people fail to recognize:

  1. Change creates opportunity
  2. There is always a way to use change to your advantage

Wise words that are not always lived by — especially in the business world.
