Change the approach when the evidence changes

Adaptability does not require abandoning a plan whenever something becomes difficult. This Skill Lab focuses on recognizing when an assumption no longer holds and choosing a proportionate adjustment. It helps you distinguish a temporary obstacle from a change that affects the purpose, timing or method of the work.

Imagine that a process designed for a small team is now used by several departments. In this illustrative situation, repeated delays may show that the original handoff is no longer suitable. Identify the evidence for that view and consider whether a limited change would address the problem. Compare it with the cost and disruption of a larger redesign.

Define what you will review

Choose an adjustment within your authority and explain it to the people affected. State what should become easier, what must remain reliable and when you will examine the result. If the change introduces another difficulty, use that information to refine the approach instead of defending the first idea. Bring a current working routine or a fictional example to the request. The emphasis is deliberate adjustment based on evidence, with continuity where the existing approach still serves its purpose.
