    Describe the initial ideas and vision for the project

    Kotter’s 8-steps process equips businesses with the meansand method to transform themselves quickly, continuously and with powerful results. His international bestseller Leading Change (1996), is considered by many to be the seminal work in the field of change management.
     
    Unsuccessful transitions almost always founder during at least one of the following phases: generating a sense of urgency, establishinga powerful guiding coalition, developing a vision, communicating the visionclearly and often, removing obstacles, planning for and creating short-term wins, avoiding premature declarations of victory, and embedding changes in the corporate culture.
     

      Scope planning

      Describe the scope of planned project

      Meaningful organizational change cannot occur without the cooperation of the affected stakeholders. As a result, creating a sense of urgency for a needed change is the first step senior leaders must take to gain the cooperation of management and employees.
       
       Creating a sense of urgency alerts the organization that change must occur and it begins the preparation for change.  It must be done well for a change effort to have a meaningful organizational impact.
       
      Senior leaders create a sense of urgency by both selling the value of a future state to organizational stakeholders and making the status quo a dangerous place for the stakeholders to remain.  In effect, senior leaders create a compelling narrative that tells stakeholders why it is not in their best interest for the organization to stay in its current state.
       
      This is often done through frank discussions about the current market and competitive realities, sharing relevant financial and customer data, and discussing opportunities and crises facing the organization.  Communication is critical and the communications about the urgent need for change must be honest.  A manufactured sense of urgency will soon be seen for what it is and this will doom a change effort to mediocrity.

          Students,professors and visiting lectures will provide ideas and knowledge to the topic in this project to equip students with solid information for their group work.
           
          There are several steps the project team can look at how  to create a sense of urgency and gain the commitment of managers, employees, and other stakeholders.  They include:
          • How to show the seriousness of senior leadership commitment to the coming change by eliminating obvious waste;
          • How to share  bad news with the organization;
          • How to require managers and employees to talk regularly to unhappy suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders to understand their concerns directly;
          • How to share data throughout the organization that supports the claim that change is necessary; and
          • How to ensure organizational decisions and management actions are in agreement with change communications (walk the talk).
