🎙️Change Leader Insights: Shana Bosler, Director of Learning and Development at Emergenetics International

In this episode of Change Leader Insights, Jessica Crow speaks with Shana Bosler, Director of Learning and Development at Emergenetics International, about behavioral preferences and how our preferences influence individual change attitudes.  

Shana Bosler is the Director of Coaching, Learning & Development at Emergenetics International, where she leads global initiatives in professional development, team dynamics, and leadership training. As an Emergenetics Master Associate, she has certified hundreds of professionals in the Emergenetics theory, equipping them to foster cognitive diversity and enhance organizational performance.

During the conversation, Jessica and Shana discussed resistance to change and how to reframe it from a behavioral preference perspective based on Emergenetics’ tool. Says Shana, “Some individuals may need more time to get on board because they’re energized by pushing the original decision forward. There’s a gift in that because a lot of times, the first decision was the right one. Sometimes, these folks could be perceived as resistors, but they’re bringing a gift to the organization in pushing forward the original decision and freeing up time to do other things.” 

Highlights from the conversation include: 

☑️  How understanding behavioral preferences can help change leaders be more effective and navigate change 

☑️  How colleagues can share similar behavioral preferences but show up differently due to  situational differences, and how these factors emerge in the workplace

☑️  A dive into the behavior of flexibility and how it manifests through the lens of change
