Leadership transitions can be particularly challenging when resistance to change arises. However, using John Kotter’s 8-Step Change Model, you can turn these challenges into opportunities for growth. The model begins with creating a sense of urgency around the change and forming a coalition of influential leaders who support the transition. A clear and compelling vision for the future is then developed and communicated consistently to ensure everyone is on the same page.
To maintain momentum, it’s important to identify and remove obstacles that could impede progress. Achieving short-term wins builds confidence and sets the stage for tackling more complex issues. Finally, by embedding the new changes into your company culture, you ensure that the benefits of the transition are long-lasting.
