What to Do When You’re Not Getting Cooperation
The success of your team goal and team work depends in good part on cooperation from the people on your team and people across the larger
organization.
So what do you do when you can’t get cooperation, when people resist?www.create-learning.com
Let’s be very clear: the best way to deal with resistance is to prevent it, which means planning in advance (refer to the earlier
videos and content). Not all resistance can be prevented.Learn to recognize whether what’s happening really is resistance.

Why Might People Not Cooperate With Your Team Work or Team Goal?
People may be uncooperative or resistant for a variety of reasons. Some of these reasons might seem understandable to you, while others may strike you as unsupportive or even petty.
We recommend that you refrain from making value judgments about the reasons. Instead you should try and discern the possible underlying causes for resistance and deal with it as best you can.
