Developing an openness to change involves several steps: 1. Self-awareness: Leaders must recognize their own resistance to change and understand its root causes. 2. Education: Continuous learning through workshops, reading, and engaging with thought leaders in the field. 3. Feedback: Actively seeking and acting on feedback from peers and team members. 4. Experimentation: Encouraging a trial-and-error approach to new ideas and processes. 5. Networking: Building a network of like-minded professionals who are also committed to embracing change.
