Three critical things to know at this stage:
- Be able to spot resistance early and in its many subtle forms. And be able to determine if the potential derailment is caused from technical, financial, or human factors. These are common sources of resistance to change. If you know these, you can avoid many of the real headaches that come with change.

- Strategies to turn opposition and reluctance into support.
