How to bring mindset change

- Switch Framework

Switch book written by Chip and Dan Heath6

Page 7: Scaling agile mindset poonam jain

Two parts of the same Brain

Emotional part• This part is instinctive and feels

pain and pleasure

Rational part• This part is reflective, conscious,

deliberative and analytical

Rider

Elephant

Everyone in your workforce is both a Rider and an Elephant• Direct the Rider (rational)

• Motivate the Elephant (emotional)

Page 8: Scaling agile mindset poonam jain

What Gets in the way

• People problems are often situation problems

• Laziness is often rider exhaustion

• Resistance to change is often a lack of clarity

The Switch Framework

9

• Provide crystal-clear directions so the rider doesn’t spin its wheels

Direct the Rider

• Get the elephant onboard with the riders plans, so that the rider doesn’t have to tug on the reigns all day

Motivate the Elephant

• Create an environment that puts both the elephant and rider on the right path

Shape the Path

Page 10: Scaling agile mindset poonam jain

Direct the Rider

• FOLLOW THE BRIGHT SPOTS• Investigate what’s working and clone it

• SCRIPT THE CRITICAL MOVES• Don’t think big picture, think in terms of specific behaviors

• POINT TO THE DESTINATION• Change is easier when you know where you’re going and why it’s worth it

10

Page 11: Scaling agile mindset poonam jain

Motivate the Elephant

• FIND THE FEELING• Knowing something isn’t enough to cause change. Make people feel

something

• SHRINK THE CHANGE• Break down the change until it no longer spooks the Elephant

• GROW YOUR PEOPLE• Cultivate a sense of identity and instill the growth mindset

11

Page 12: Scaling agile mindset poonam jain

Shape the Path

• TWEAK THE ENVIRONMENT• When the situation changes, the behavior changes. So change the

situation

• BUILD HABITS• When behavior is habitual, it’s “free”—it doesn’t tax the Rider. Look for

ways to encourage habits

• RALLY THE HERD• Behavior is contagious. Help it spread
