In this brief excerpt, speaker Patrick Mosher defines "adoption" in a corporate context as the act of assuming ownership of something that does not naturally belong to you. He uses the metaphor of an "ugly baby" to illustrate how most people resist organizational change, preferring not to take responsibility for the new, uncomfortable reality. Mosher points out that consultants often step in because they are not the ones who own the change; instead, they must persuade the organization to love and accept the "baby" despite its initial unattractiveness. The segment highlights the psychological barrier to change adoption and the consultant’s role in facilitating acceptance.
