Models of Change

Models of Change are frameworks that explain how individuals or organizations undergo transformation. They outline steps or phases, such as understanding the need for change, planning, taking action, and maintaining new behaviors. These models help us understand why change can be challenging and provide strategies to make it more effective. Examples include the Transtheoretical Model, which describes stages like precontemplation and maintenance, and Kotter’s 8-Step Change Model, emphasizing leadership and communication. Overall, these models serve as guides to implement and sustain meaningful change systematically and successfully.
