Change Management Models: Kotter's 8-Step Change Model

Kotter's 8-Step change management model was introduced in 1995 by Dr. John Kotter, a professor at Harvard Business School. It's one of the most popular and adopted change management models in the world, because it focuses on preparing employees for change rather than change implementation itself. The model consists of eight stages: 1. Create a sense of urgency, 2. Build a guiding coalition, 3. Form a strategic vision and initiatives, e4. Enlist a volunteer army, 5. Enable action by removing barriers, 6. Generate short-term wins, 7. Sustain acceleration, and 8. Institute change. In this course, we'll go through all eight stages and talk about how to use this model to implement change in your workplace.
