N2  - This article argues that because much behaviour in organizations occurs in a relatively automatic and non-conscious manner, the focus on how change recipients develop positive change beliefs regarding an explicitly formulated change is likely to be an incomplete understanding of how readiness for change develops. A more complete understanding requires consideration of how change recipients develop an awareness of their automatically replicated behaviours. The article theorizes that mindfulness facilitates this awareness, and further suggests that there may be trade-offs involved in developing positive change beliefs and uncovering automatically replicated behaviours. The article concludes with suggestions regarding how these two aspects of readiness may be balanced
