Depends on how many people are willing to take a stand simultaneously and how replaceable they are.
Similar to a union strike if enough people stop working the employer has no option but to cave in to the demands.
But the initial wave is usually the one meeting the most resistance when most people in a group aren't even open to an idea. It takes brave people who are willing to take the initial stand when it's still uncomfortable to do so.
