How to Have a Positive Reaction to Change in the Workplace

Change is all around us. It is happening to both you and I as I am writing this article. In the words of Charles Darwin, it is not the fittest that survive but those creatures that are most adaptable to change. When change occurs in our lives it can be a daunting experience.
