However, our brains still operate as though we are still living in a hunting, gathering society of early Homo sapiens.\u00a0 The very essence of our brain in such situations or any threatening situation is to survive.\u00a0 The human brain is hardwired to seek certainty and avoid threats. Inherently, human brains resist change.\u00a0 \u00a0When we look at our work in the last 200 years, it has completely changed but human brain has not changed to keep up with changes in our workplaces.\u00a0 Our brain is not designed to for 21st century workplace.\u00a0 It is imperative for those leading Organizational Change need to understand how the brain perceives and processes change from this perspective.

During the times of any change or threat our brain&#8217;s ability to perceive any information decreases because we take in less information as our limbic system has kicked in. Similarly, our cognitive abilities are temporarily impaired, we are less inclined to collaborate as our cognitive resources are focused on threats and not social interaction. In addition, we are less likely to notice subtle signals that allow for any insight to emerge.
