Which of the following is NOT a common reason that people resist change?
A) habit
B) uncertainty
C) concern over personal loss
D) overconfidence
Answer: D
Explanation: Fear of uncertainty can cause people to resist change. People will also resist change simply out of habit or because they think the new changed conditions somehow threaten what they already have and have worked for. Overconfidence, on the other hand, is not a reason that would cause people to resist change, making that the correct response. If anything, people who are underconfident, not overconfident, in their ability to deal with future unknowns would tend to resist change.
