When your team resists operational improvements despite obvious inefficiencies

We've been running our operations the same way for eighteen months and everyone knows our current processes are held together with duct tape but when I bring up redesigning anything my team acts like I'm suggesting we burn the building down. I can see them all mentally calculating how much extra work change would mean for them personally.
