Develop a sense of urgency around the need for change. This may help me offset the initial motivation to get things moving.What to doIdentify the potential change and develop the scenarios showing that what could be happened in the future if the changes not takenExamine the opportunities that could be benefited in the long run.Discuss the change constructive way and give people dynamic reason to make them talking and thinking.Step two Form a Powerful CoalitionConvince people that change is necessary. This often takes strong leadership and visible support from key peo ple within your organization. Managing change isnt enough I have to lead it.What to doIdentify the true leader who can bring the change in Tesco.Make them as a team within the change league.Ask the commitment to the people who will bring the change.Step three Create a good deal for changeWhen I first start thinking about change, there will probably be many great ideas and solutions floating around. Link these concepts to an overall peck that people can grasp easily and remember.What to doDetermine the value of the change has central priority.Develop a short summery that will carry the vision to future of the organization.Carry out the good practice of the vision among the coalition.Step four Communicate the visionWhat I do with my vision after I create it will determine My success. My message will probably have strong competition from other day-to-day communications within the company, so I need to communicate it frequently and powerfully, and found it within everything that I do.What to doBring the discussion often about the change vision.Openly and honestly address what people think about the change.Lead the change by example.Step five get hold of obstaclesIf I follow these steps and reach this point in the change process, Ive been talking about your vision and building buy-in from all levels of the organization. Hopefully, my staff wants to get busy and achieve the benefits that Ive been promoting.What to doIdentify the leaders whose send off roles are to deliver the changes.Set up the organizational structure, job description and performance that can meet the identified change.Recognize and reward people for making the change.Step six Create short term winsNothing motivates more than success. Give my company a taste of victory early in the change process. Within a short time frame (this could be a month or a year, depending on the type of change), Ill want to have results that my staff can see. Without this, critics and negative thinkers might dist ress my procession.What to doNot to choose early target that are expensive and may not change happened.Make sure that the change can take place without help from any strong critics of the change.Step seven Build on the changeKotter argues that many change projects fail because victory is declared too early. Real change runs deep. Quick wins are only the beginning of what needs to be done to achieve long-term change.What to doAnalyse what went right and what need to improve after making the change.Set up a goal to continue building the time that has achieved the change.Keep the idea alive and bring the new change leader from the change coalition.Step eight Anchor the Changes in Corporate CultureFinally, to make any change stick, it should become part of the core of your organization. My corporate culture often determines what gets done, so the determine behind your vision must show in day-to-day work.What to doDiscuss the change construct to the coalition in every chance and tell the success story about the change process. entangle the values and the change ideas when hiring and training the new staff.Recognize the key members publicly of the change coalition and make sure that rest of the staff new and old remember their contribution.Create plans to replace the key leader of change as they move on to ensure their legacy is not lost or forgotten.Changes may take place at any time in any situation.
