Change Curve Model

The Change Curve Model is a way to understand how people respond emotionally over time when facing change, such as a new process or organization shift. It shows that after an initial period of surprise or denial, individuals may go through phases like frustration or resistance. Over time, they adjust and accept the change, eventually reaching a stage of commitment. Recognizing these stages helps leaders support their teams through transitions more effectively by addressing concerns and providing appropriate support at each phase.
