3 Things You Can Do To Change People's Behavior

Content: Too often, we ask people to behave in new ways that seem hard to them - either we haven't taught them the necessary skills, or they've experienced pushback from others in the past when they've tried to do them, and don't want to run into that again. Rewarding : For a behavior to be rewarding the person has to feel that, "Doing this behavior will give me results (emotionally or practically) that are valuable to me." This is where behavior connects to values; you have to show people how behaving in these new ways will support what they value. For example, if someone deeply values having positive human interactions, and you help them to see how behaving in a certain way toward customers will improve the interaction - they'll find that behavior rewarding. . Normal: This is a big one. In order to change the way they behave, most people people need to feel that "People like me act this way, and people I admire and want to emulate act this way." Human beings, for the most part, don't want to be the odd man out.
